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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify Ivanti CSA versionCheck the installed version of Ivanti Endpoint Manager Cloud Services Appliance through the admin console about page, or using the system's package manager or software inventory. Compare this version number against the affected range (versions prior to 5.0.2).Affected if Installed version is lower than 5.0.2
-
Verify admin web console is accessibleConfirm the Ivanti CSA admin web console is network-accessible, typically on port 443 or 80. Check if the console login page loads at the expected URL (such as /cwa/login or similar admin paths).Affected if Admin web console is exposed and reachable from network locations
-
Audit admin user accountsReview the list of admin-level user accounts configured in the Ivanti CSA system. Check for any unauthorized or unexpected admin accounts that could indicate compromise.Affected if There are admin accounts beyond expected trusted personnel
-
Review database query logsInspect database logs or audit trails for unusual or unexpected SQL statements, especially those containing common SQL injection patterns (UNION SELECT, OR 1=1, stacked queries, or unusual timing delays).Affected if Suspicious SQL statements appear in logs or audit trails
You are affected if your Ivanti CSA version is below 5.0.2 and the admin web console is accessible, since an attacker with admin credentials could inject malicious SQL queries.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
