Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A critical-severity vulnerability exists in an unspecified third-party component bundled with ScienceLogic SL1 (EM7) monitoring platform. The vulnerability has been addressed in SL1 versions 12.1.3, 12.2.3, and 12.3 and later, with vendor-provided remediations also available for older supported version branches.

MitigationApply the appropriate vendor patch for your SL1 version line (10.1.x, 10.2.x, 11.1.x, 11.2.x, 11.3.x, or upgrade to 12.1.3+/12.2.3+/12.3+) to address the vulnerable third-party component.

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. Identify SL1 version
    Locate the installed ScienceLogic SL1 version through the system administrative interface, typically found in the About or System Information section of the EM7 management console, or by running 'version' command via CLI if available
    Affected if The installed version is 10.1.0 through 12.1.2 (inclusive), or 12.2.0 through 12.2.2 (inclusive)
  2. Confirm third-party component presence
    Determine if the vulnerable third-party component is bundled and active on the SL1 system by reviewing the system components or bundled software list in the SL1 administrative interface
    Affected if The third-party component is present and loaded on the system

The system is affected if SL1 version falls within the ranges 10.1.0 to 12.1.2 or 12.2.0 to 12.2.2 and the vulnerable third-party component is present.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 12.1.3 / 12.2.3 or later
Fixed in 12.1.312.2.3
Interim mitigation

Apply the appropriate vendor patch for your SL1 version line (10.1.x, 10.2.x, 11.1.x, 11.2.x, 11.3.x, or upgrade to 12.1.3+/12.2.3+/12.3+) to address the vulnerable third-party component.

Recommended fix High confidence

12.1.3+, 12.2.3+, or 12.3+ (depending on current version branch)

  1. Identify current SL1 version by checking the ScienceLogic admin console or system information
  2. For systems on 12.1.x branch: upgrade to version 12.1.3 or later
  3. For systems on 12.2.x branch: upgrade to version 12.2.3 or later
  4. For systems on 12.3.x branch: ensure version is 12.3.0 or later
  5. For systems on 10.1.x, 10.2.x, 11.1.x, 11.2.x, or 11.3.x: contact ScienceLogic support for patch remediations as mentioned in official advisory
  6. Schedule upgrade during maintenance window due to potential service impact
  7. Verify upgrade completed successfully and confirm new version in admin console
Caveat Standard upgrade considerations apply - review ScienceLogic upgrade documentation for version-specific migration notes
