CVE-2025-0456
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 · uneditedThe airPASS from NetVision Information has a Missing Authentication vulnerability, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to access the specific administrative functionality to retrieve * all accounts and passwords.
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 · high confidenceairPASS from NetVision Information has a critical missing authentication vulnerability that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to access specific administrative functionality without any credentials. This exposes all user accounts and their passwords, enabling full account enumeration and potential account takeover.

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 if airPASS is installedSearch the system or web server for airPASS application files, or check running services that may host the NetVision airPASS applicationAffected if airPASS from NetVision Information is present on the system
-
Determine airPASS versionCheck the application version information typically found in the software itself, configuration files, or about/ status pages within the airPASS applicationAffected if The installed version matches any version of airPASS from NetVision (no specific version range provided)
-
Locate the administrative endpointIdentify the specific administrative function or endpoint within airPASS that handles user account data retrieval. Check web server access logs or application routing configuration for paths related to user credentials, admin functions, or account exportsAffected if The endpoint exists and is accessible without requiring authentication
-
Test endpoint authenticationSend an HTTP request to the identified administrative endpoint without providing any authentication credentials (no session cookie, no API key, no Basic Auth)Affected if The endpoint returns user account credentials (usernames and passwords) without requiring any authentication
A user is affected if the airPASS application is installed and the administrative endpoint that exposes user credentials is accessible without any authentication.

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 dataImplement proper authentication and authorization checks for all administrative endpoints. Additionally, ensure passwords are properly hashed if not already, and conduct a comprehensive security review to identify any other unprotected administrative functions.
