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 attacker with network access, could capture traffic and obtain user cookies, allowing the attacker to steal the active user session and make changes to the device via web, depending on the privileges obtained by the user.

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

The vulnerability allows an attacker with network access to capture traffic and obtain user cookies, enabling session hijacking. This suggests cleartext communication (HTTP) or insufficient transport layer security, allowing the attacker to intercept session cookies and impersonate authenticated users.

MitigationImplement HTTPS/SSL/TLS to encrypt all traffic, configure secure cookie flags (Secure, HttpOnly, SameSite), and implement proper session management with session invalidation on logout and periodic session rotation.

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 the Arteche Satech Bcu Firmware version
    Access the device management interface or check system information settings to determine the installed firmware version. This is typically found in the About, System Info, or Diagnostics section of the web-based management console.
    Affected if The installed firmware version is exactly 2.1.3
  2. Verify if HTTP management interface is accessible
    Attempt to access the device using HTTP (port 80) rather than HTTPS. Check whether the device responds to plain HTTP requests for the login or administrative interface.
    Affected if The device accepts unencrypted HTTP connections on port 80 or other non-secure ports
  3. Inspect cookie transmission over HTTP
    Use a browser or network capture tool to observe cookie headers when authenticating to the device. Record whether cookies are transmitted in cleartext within HTTP headers.
    Affected if Session cookies are transmitted over unencrypted HTTP connections without TLS/SSL encryption
  4. Check cookie attribute configuration
    Examine the Set-Cookie headers in the HTTP response during login. Look for the presence or absence of Secure, HttpOnly, and SameSite attributes on session cookies.
    Affected if Session cookies lack the Secure flag, making them eligible for transmission over unencrypted connections

A user is affected if they are running Arteche Satech Bcu Firmware version 2.1.3 and the device allows unencrypted HTTP access where session cookies are transmitted without secure flags.
