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
Nokia MantaRay NM is vulnerable to an OS command injection vulnerability due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command in Log Search application.

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

Nokia MantaRay Network Manager contains an OS command injection vulnerability in its Log Search application. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of special elements in user-supplied input, allowing authenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary operating system commands.

MitigationApply the vendor-provided patch when released. Until then, restrict access to the Log Search functionality to trusted users only and implement strict input validation on all user-provided data before passing it to system calls.

Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

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 Nokia MantaRay Network Manager installation
    Look for MantaRay Nm installation directories, services, or web interfaces. Check system processes for 'mantaray' or 'nm' processes. Look for port 8080, 8443, or common web service ports running Nokia network management applications.
    Affected if No MantaRay Nm installation is found, the system is not affected by this CVE.
  2. Determine installed MantaRay Nm version
    Check the installed version through the web interface (usually in About/Help section), or via command line if available: look for version files in installation directories, check service banner, or consult /opt/nm version files if they exist. Compare against the affected range: versions < 25r1-nm are vulnerable.
    Affected if Installed version is 25r1-nm or higher - NOT vulnerable. Version is below 25r1-nm - VULNERABLE.
  3. Verify Log Search application is enabled
    Check if the Log Search feature is accessible and enabled in the MantaRay web interface. Look for Log Search or logging-related menu items. Review configuration files in the Nm installation directory for Log Search module settings.
    Affected if Log Search is disabled or not present, the command injection cannot be exploited even on vulnerable versions.
  4. Assess access controls on Log Search
    Review user access controls, roles, and permissions within MantaRay Nm. Determine if untrusted or low-privilege users can access the Log Search functionality. Check authentication configuration and user group assignments.
    Affected if Log Search is accessible to untrusted or low-privilege authenticated users - HIGH RISK for exploitation on vulnerable versions.

System is affected if Nokia MantaRay Nm version is below 25r1-nm AND the Log Search feature is enabled and accessible to the attacking user.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 25r1-nm or later
Fixed in 25r1-nm
Interim mitigation

Apply the vendor-provided patch when released. Until then, restrict access to the Log Search functionality to trusted users only and implement strict input validation on all user-provided data before passing it to system calls.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

25r1-nm

  1. 1. Backup current MantaRay NM configuration and data
  2. 2. Obtain the fixed version (25r1-nm or later) from Nokia's official support channels
  3. 3. Follow Nokia's standard upgrade procedure for MantaRay NM
  4. 4. After upgrade, verify the Log Search application functions correctly
  5. 5. Confirm the vulnerability is resolved by testing Log Search functionality
