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 BAE SOCET GXP before 4.6.0.2. The SOCET GXP Job Status Service does not implement CSRF protections. An attacker who social engineers a valid user into clicking a malicious link or visiting a malicious website may be able to submit requests to the Job Status Service without the user's knowledge.

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 BAE SOCET GXP Job Status Service lacks CSRF protection mechanisms, allowing attackers to forge authenticated requests. An attacker can trick a logged-in user into unknowingly submitting requests to the Job Status Service by leveraging social engineering techniques such as malicious links or websites.

MitigationImplement anti-CSRF tokens (synchronizer token pattern) for all state-changing operations and configure SameSite cookies on session cookies to prevent cross-origin request forgery.

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 SOCET GXP version
    Locate the installed BAE Systems SOCET GXP version through the application GUI, Help > About menu, or product documentation. If using a command-line interface, check the version using the product's built-in version command if available.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 4.6.0.2 (e.g., 4.5.x, 4.4.x, or earlier releases).
  2. Confirm Job Status Service is accessible
    Verify the Job Status Service endpoint is exposed and reachable. This is typically a web service component that handles job submission and status queries. Check if the service is enabled in the application configuration or accessible via browser if it has a web interface.
    Affected if The Job Status Service is enabled and accessible to users.
  3. Inspect session cookie configuration
    Log into the SOCET GXP application and examine the session cookies using browser developer tools (Application/Storage tab) or by intercepting HTTP responses. Look for the SameSite attribute on session cookies.
    Affected if Session cookies do not have the SameSite attribute set, or it is set to None without Secure flag.
  4. Check for anti-CSRF token implementation
    Submit a state-changing request to the Job Status Service (such as a job submission) and inspect the HTTP request/response. Look for a CSRF token parameter or header in the request, or a token field in the application forms.
    Affected if No CSRF token, anti-CSRF token, or synchronizer token pattern is present in requests to the Job Status Service.

The environment is affected if SOCET GXP version is below 4.6.0.2 AND the Job Status Service is accessible AND no CSRF protection (tokens or SameSite cookies) is implemented.
