CVE-2024-9983
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedEnterprise Cloud Database from Ragic does not properly validate a specific page parameter, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to exploit this vulnerability to read arbitrary system files.
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 confidenceRagic Enterprise Cloud Database fails to validate a 'page' parameter, enabling unauthenticated remote attackers to perform path traversal and read arbitrary system files on the host. This is a classic local file inclusion (LFI) vulnerability stemming from insufficient input sanitization.

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 Ragic installationLocate Ragic Enterprise Cloud Database in your environment - check for the web application service and its deployment directoryAffected if Ragic Enterprise Cloud Database is installed and running
-
Check installed versionRetrieve the version number of your Ragic installation and compare it to the affected range: versions released before 2024-08-08Affected if The installed version is earlier than 2024-08-08
-
Identify vulnerable endpoint exposureDetermine if the application exposes an endpoint that accepts a 'page' parameter (typically in HTTP GET requests to the web interface)Affected if The 'page' parameter is accepted without authentication
-
Verify lack of input validationAttempt a controlled path traversal test using the 'page' parameter with a safe reference (e.g., ../../) to see if directory traversal is possible or blockedAffected if The application allows directory traversal characters in the 'page' parameter without sanitization or rejection
You are affected if Ragic Enterprise Cloud Database is running a version released before 2024-08-08 and the web interface accepts an unauthenticated 'page' parameter that permits path traversal sequences.

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.
From vendor data2024-08-08
Implement strict whitelist-based validation for the page parameter, ensuring only permitted values are accepted. Alternatively, use filesystem APIs that prevent directory traversal (e.g., canonicalize paths and verify they fall within allowed directories).
