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
Due to lack of server-side input validation, attackers can inject malicious JavaScript code into users personal spaces of the web portal.

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

Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in web portal user personal spaces due to missing server-side input validation. Attackers can inject malicious JavaScript that executes when other users view affected personal space content.

MitigationImplement strict server-side input validation with allowlist approach and contextual output encoding for all user-supplied data in personal spaces. Consider Content Security Policy headers as defense-in-depth.

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 Growatt Cloud Portal version
    Log into the Growatt Cloud Portal admin interface and navigate to Settings or About section to find the software version. Alternatively, check any documentation, release notes, or system inventory that lists the deployed portal version.
    Affected if The installed version is 3.6.0 or lower
  2. Confirm personal spaces feature is active
    Access the user-facing portal and verify if personal spaces or user profile pages are available. Check if regular users can create or edit content in their personal space/profile area.
    Affected if The personal spaces feature exists and users can submit custom content
  3. Inspect user-supplied content storage
    If you have database or backend access, query the data store for user content fields in personal spaces. Look for any HTML or script tags in user-entered data that may indicate injected payloads.
    Affected if User-submitted content in personal spaces is stored and rendered without sanitization

You are affected if the Growatt Cloud Portal version is 3.6.0 or lower AND the personal spaces feature is enabled, allowing users to submit content that gets stored and displayed to others without server-side validation.

Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 3.6.0
Interim mitigation

Implement strict server-side input validation with allowlist approach and contextual output encoding for all user-supplied data in personal spaces. Consider Content Security Policy headers as defense-in-depth.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Upgrade to the latest Cloud Portal release (version > 3.6.0) - consult vendor for exact fixed version

  1. 1. Backup the current Cloud Portal installation and database before making any changes
  2. 2. Check the vendor's official release notes or security advisory for the fixed version (version > 3.6.0)
  3. 3. Download the latest stable release of Cloud Portal from the official vendor source
  4. 4. Deploy the new version in a staging environment first to verify functionality
  5. 5. Apply the upgrade following the vendor's documented upgrade procedure
  6. 6. Verify that the server-side input validation is now properly implemented
  7. 7. Test that XSS payloads are properly sanitized or rejected in user personal spaces
  8. 8. Deploy the updated version to production
Caveat Review vendor release notes for any breaking changes between your current version and the target version
