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. Confirm BeeDrive installation
    Check for BeeDrive application on the system - look for BeeDrive executable or installed application (common paths: C:\Program Files\Synology\BeeDrive\ or %LOCALAPPDATA%\BeeDrive\ on Windows; /Applications/BeeDrive.app on macOS)
    Affected if BeeDrive is installed on the system
  2. Retrieve installed version
    Open BeeDrive and navigate to Help > About, or right-click the BeeDrive icon and select 'About BeeDrive' to view the exact version number
    Affected if The displayed version is prior to 1.4.2-13960
  3. Alternative version check via file properties
