CVE-2025-30514
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 · uneditedUnauthenticated attackers can obtain restricted information about a user's smart device collections (i.e., "scenes").
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 confidenceThis vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass authentication checks and access restricted information about a user's smart device collections, known as 'scenes'. The issue appears to be a missing or inadequate authorization check in an API endpoint that returns scene data.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify Growatt Cloud Portal deploymentCheck your environment for any systems running the Growatt Cloud Portal application. This may involve reviewing cloud service inventories, container registries, or installed application lists.Affected if Growatt Cloud Portal is deployed in your environment
-
Determine installed versionLocate and examine the version information for your Growatt Cloud Portal installation. Check configuration files, about pages, or admin interfaces for the version number.Affected if The installed version is 3.6.0 or lower
-
Verify API endpoint accessibilityAttempt to access the API endpoint that returns scene data without providing any authentication credentials. Observe whether the request succeeds and returns user scene information.Affected if The endpoint returns scene data without requiring valid authentication tokens or session cookies
-
Check authorization enforcementSend requests to the scene data API endpoint using invalid, expired, or missing authorization headers. Confirm whether the system properly rejects unauthorized access attempts.Affected if The API returns user scene information despite invalid or absent credentials
You are affected if your environment runs Growatt Cloud Portal version 3.6.0 or lower and the scene data API endpoint returns user collection information to unauthenticated requests.

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.
From vendor dataImplement proper authentication and authorization validation before returning any scene data to ensure only authenticated users can access their own collections.
