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.

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 confidence

Vasion Print (formerly PrinterLogic) before Virtual Appliance Host 22.0.843 and Application 20.0.1923 uses weak password encryption (OVE-20230524-0007), allowing attackers to potentially recover plaintext passwords from stored or transmitted credential data due to inadequate cryptographic protection.

MitigationUpgrade to Virtual Appliance Host 22.0.843 / Application 20.0.1923 or later. After patching, review and rotate all stored credentials that may have been protected by the weak encryption mechanism.

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. Determine installed PrinterLogic/Vasion Print application version
    Locate the application's version information in the software itself (typically found in Help > About, or in the installation directory), or query the installed package via system inventory tools
    Affected if The version is lower than 20.0.1923
  2. Determine Virtual Appliance host version
    Access the Virtual Appliance admin console or check the appliance's system information panel, or query the VM host for the appliance version
    Affected if The Virtual Appliance version is lower than 22.0.843
  3. Identify stored credential repositories
    Locate database files, configuration files, or credential storage directories used by the Print management system (commonly found in application data folders or SQL databases)
    Affected if Credentials are stored in the system and the version check shows vulnerability
  4. Review credential transmission methods
    Examine network traffic captures or SSL/TLS configuration between client stations and the print server to determine if passwords are transmitted without adequate encryption
    Affected if Credentials are transmitted over the network and the version check shows vulnerability

The environment is affected if either the PrinterLogic/Vasion Print Application version is below 20.0.1923 or the Virtual Appliance host version is below 22.0.843, and stored or transmitted credentials exist in the system.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 20.0.1923 / 22.0.843 or later
Fixed in 20.0.192322.0.843
Interim mitigation

Upgrade to Virtual Appliance Host 22.0.843 / Application 20.0.1923 or later. After patching, review and rotate all stored credentials that may have been protected by the weak encryption mechanism.

Recommended fix High confidence

Application 20.0.1923 / Virtual Appliance Host 22.0.843 or later

  1. 1. Back up the current Vasion Print application configuration and database according to vendor documentation.
  2. 2. Download the fixed version of Vasion Print Application (20.0.1923 or later) and Virtual Appliance Host (22.0.843 or later) from the official Vasion support portal at help.printerlogic.com.
  3. 3. If using the Virtual Appliance, first upgrade the Virtual Appliance Host to version 22.0.843 or later.
  4. 4. Then upgrade the Vasion Print Application component to version 20.0.1923 or later.
  5. 5. After upgrading, verify that the weak password encryption vulnerability is remediated by confirming the application functions normally.
  6. 6. Review the application logs and system health to ensure the upgrade completed successfully.
