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 installed MagicINFO versionLocate the installed Samsung MagicINFO 9 Server version information through the server administration interface, installed programs list, or version file within the application directory. Compare the found version number to the affected range of versions prior to 21.1080.0.Affected if The installed version is less than 21.1080.0
-
Verify MagicINFO Server is runningCheck if the Samsung MagicINFO 9 Server service or process is currently active on the system. This can be done through the operating system's service management console, task manager, or process listing tools.Affected if The server service is running and the version cannot be determined or is confirmed below 21.1080.0
-
Confirm server is network accessibleDetermine whether the MagicINFO Server HTTP/HTTPS ports are listening and accessible from network locations. Use network scanning tools or check server configuration for bound IP addresses and port listeners.Affected if The server is network-accessible and the version is below 21.1080.0, enabling remote unauthenticated attackers to attempt the bypass
A system is affected if Samsung MagicINFO 9 Server version is identified as being less than 21.1080.0 and the server is operational.

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.
dbcve · scoped21.1080.0
Upgrade MagicINFO 9 Server to version 21.1080.0 or later to remediate the authentication bypass. If immediate patching is not possible, restrict network access to the server and implement additional authentication controls at the network perimeter.

- Ensure backup of current configuration and data before upgrading
- Stop the MagicINFO 9 Server service
- Install version 21.1080.0 or newer
- Start the MagicINFO 9 Server service
- Verify the server is running and the version is correct
- Confirm the authentication bypass vulnerability is resolved by testing login functionality
