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
An issue was discovered in Stormshield Network Security (SNS) 4.3.x before 4.3.35. If multicast streams are enabled on different interfaces, it may be possible to interrupt multicast traffic on some of these interfaces. That could result in a denial of the multicast routing service on the firewall.

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 denial of service vulnerability in Stormshield SNS 4.3.x allows interruption of multicast traffic on certain interfaces when multicast streams are enabled across multiple interfaces, causing failure of the multicast routing service.

MitigationUpgrade to Stormshield SNS version 4.3.35 or later to patch this vulnerability, and review multicast routing configurations on production firewalls.

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 Stormshield SNS version
    Run 'clish -c "show version"' or check the product information in the Stormshield admin interface to confirm the installed SNS version
    Affected if The installed version is 4.3.x and is lower than 4.3.35 (the patch was released in version 4.3.35)
  2. Verify multicast routing is enabled
    Check the firewall configuration for multicast routing settings, typically found in the network or routing sections of the SNS admin interface, or run 'multicast status' if available via CLI
    Affected if Multicast routing is enabled and operational on the firewall
  3. Confirm multicast streams across multiple interfaces
    Review the multicast stream configuration to determine if multicast traffic is being routed between two or more distinct interfaces (not just on a single interface)
    Affected if Multicast streams are configured to flow across multiple interfaces simultaneously, enabling the condition that triggers the service failure
  4. Cross-reference version with vulnerability scope
    Compare your confirmed version (from step 1) against the affected range: 4.3.0 through 4.3.34 are vulnerable; versions 4.3.35 and later are patched
    Affected if The firewall runs any version from 4.3.0 to 4.3.34 with multicast routing active across multiple interfaces

You are affected if your Stormshield SNS runs version 4.3.0 through 4.3.34 AND you have multicast routing enabled across multiple interfaces simultaneously.

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.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Upgrade to Stormshield SNS version 4.3.35 or later to patch this vulnerability, and review multicast routing configurations on production firewalls.

Recommended fix High confidence

Stormshield Network Security (SNS) 4.3.35 or later

  1. 1. Back up the current Stormshield Network Security configuration before initiating any upgrade
  2. 2. Verify the current SNS version is 4.3.x by checking the system information in the administration interface
  3. 3. Download SNS version 4.3.35 or later from the official Stormshield support portal (requires valid support contract)
  4. 4. Review Stormshield release notes for version 4.3.35 to confirm multicast routing improvements are included
  5. 5. Apply the firmware upgrade following Stormshield's standard upgrade procedure (typically via the administration web interface or CLI)
  6. 6. After upgrade completion, verify multicast routing functionality is restored and the vulnerability is resolved
  7. 7. Confirm the running version is 4.3.35 or later in the system information
