Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate Exchange Reporter Plus installation
    Check common installation directories such as C:\ManageEngine\ExchangeReporterPlus on Windows or /opt/ManageEngine/ExchangeReporterPlus on Linux. Look for the product's start.bat, start.sh, or the main application executable.
    Affected if The product is not installed on the system.
  2. Identify installed version
    In the installation directory, open the version.txt or build.txt file typically found in the conf or root folder. Alternatively, check the application banner when starting the service or look in the Windows Registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\ManageEngine\ExchangeReporterPlus for the Version key.
    Affected if Unable to retrieve a version number from the installation.
  3. Compare version against vulnerable range
    Compare your installed version to the affected ranges: versions prior to 5.7 and version 5.7 exactly are vulnerable. Version 5715 and later are patched. For example, version 5714 or 5.6.2 would be in the vulnerable range.
    Affected if The installed version is less than 5715 (such as 5714, 5700, or any 5.x version prior to 5.7) or equals exactly 5.7.
  4. Verify reports module accessibility
    If the application is running, attempt to access the reports module via the web interface at /reports or check if the reports functionality is enabled in the application's administration console under Module Configuration.
    Affected if The reports module is accessible and the application version falls within the vulnerable range.

You are affected if ManageEngine Exchange Reporter Plus is installed with a version less than 5715 (including version 5.7) and the reports module is accessible.
