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 · unedited
Statistical Database System developed by Gotac has a Missing Authentication vulnerability, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to read, modify, and delete database contents with high-level privileges.

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 missing authentication vulnerability in Gotac's Statistical Database System allows unauthenticated remote attackers to gain high-privilege database access, enabling full read, write, and delete operations without any credentials.

MitigationImplement robust authentication and authorization mechanisms before database access, enforce privilege separation, and restrict network exposure of the database system.

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 Gotac Statistical Database System presence
    Search for Gotac Statistical Database System in installed software, running services, or system inventory. Check for processes named 'gotac', 'statdb', or similar variants.
    Affected if The product is present in the environment
  2. Check database service network exposure
    Review firewall rules, network configurations, and service bindings. Identify if the database port (commonly 5432, 3306, or custom) is listening on external interfaces or accessible from untrusted networks.
    Affected if Database service is bound to 0.0.0.0 or exposed to untrusted networks without network segmentation
  3. Verify authentication is required for database connections
    Attempt a connection to the database without providing credentials, or inspect connection strings and authentication configuration files for empty passwords, trusted connections, or bypass mechanisms.
    Affected if Database accepts connections without credentials or uses authentication that can be bypassed
  4. Check for privilege assignment configuration
    Inspect database user roles, privilege configurations, and access control settings. Look for high-privilege accounts accessible without authentication.
    Affected if Unauthenticated or anonymous users can access high-privilege database roles
  5. Confirm database operations are accessible without auth
    Test basic database operations (SELECT, INSERT, DELETE) using an unauthenticated connection attempt, or review audit logs for unauthenticated database access attempts.
    Affected if Unauthenticated users can execute read, write, or delete operations on the database

If Gotac Statistical Database System is present AND accepts unauthenticated database connections allowing read/write/delete operations, the environment is affected by CVE-2025-10452.
