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
Blue Access Cobalt v02.000.195 suffers from an authentication bypass vulnerability, which allows an attacker to selectively proxy requests in order to operate functionality on the web application without the need to authenticate with legitimate credentials.

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

Blue Access Cobalt v02.000.195 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to proxy requests and access protected application functionality without valid credentials. The flaw appears to involve improper validation of authentication state when requests are proxied through the system.

MitigationImplement proper authentication validation for all proxied requests and enforce credential checks before allowing access to protected functionality. Consider implementing a unified authentication layer that cannot be bypassed through request proxying.

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 installed version
    Locate the Blue Access Cobalt X1 version information through the product's admin interface, system information page, or version lookup command provided by Blueaccesstech. Compare the installed version against 02.000.195.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 02.000.195
  2. Verify proxy functionality exposure
    Review the application configuration or deployment settings to determine if request proxying or forwarding features are enabled and accessible to network callers.
    Affected if Proxy or request forwarding functionality is enabled and exposed to network access
  3. Test unauthenticated access to protected endpoints
    Send HTTP requests to protected application endpoints through the proxy interface without providing valid authentication credentials. Observe whether the requests succeed or return protected content.
    Affected if Requests to protected functionality succeed without valid authentication credentials when routed through the proxy
  4. Inspect authentication validation for proxied requests
    Review authentication logs or debug output when proxied requests are made. Check whether the system validates credentials before granting access to protected resources.
    Affected if The system allows proxied requests to bypass credential validation and access protected functionality

Your environment is affected if Blue Access Cobalt X1 version 02.000.195 is installed AND the proxy functionality is enabled and accessible, allowing unauthenticated access to protected application features.
