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
Information disclosure and exposure of authentication FTP credentials over the debug port 1604 in the MINOVA TTA service. This allows unauthenticated remote access to an active FTP account containing sensitive internal data and import structures. In environments where this FTP server is part of automated business processes (e.g. EDI or data integration), this could lead to data manipulation, extraction, or abuse.  Debug ports 1602, 1603 and 1636 also expose service architecture information and system activity logs

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 MINOVA TTA service exposes FTP authentication credentials through debug port 1604, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to access an active FTP account containing sensitive internal data and import structures. Additional debug ports (1602, 1603, 1636) expose service architecture details and system activity logs, creating multiple information disclosure vectors.

MitigationImmediately firewall or disable debug ports 1602, 1603, 1604, and 1636 from external access, rotate any exposed FTP credentials, and review the MINOVA TTA service configuration to ensure production instances do not expose debug interfaces.

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. Verify debug port 1604 is exposed
    Run 'netstat -tuln | grep 1604' or 'ss -tuln | grep 1604' to check if port 1604 is listening. Use an external scanner (nmap -p 1604 <your-external-ip>) to determine if this port is reachable from outside the local network.
    Affected if Port 1604 is listening and accessible from an untrusted network, allowing anonymous access to FTP credentials
  2. Verify other debug ports 1602, 1603, 1636 are exposed
    Run 'netstat -tuln | grep -E "1602|1603|1636"' or scan these ports externally with nmap to check for exposure.
    Affected if Any of these ports are listening and externally accessible, exposing service architecture and system logs
  3. Identify the MINOVA TTA service process and listening ports
    Run 'ps aux | grep -i minova' or 'tasklist | findstr minova' on Windows to locate the running service. Then use 'netstat -anop | grep <pid>' to list all ports the service is listening on.
    Affected if MINOVA TTA service is running and has debug ports 1602-1604 or 1636 in its listening port list
  4. Check firewall rules allowing access to debug ports
    On Linux, run 'iptables -L -n | grep -E "1602|1603|1604|1636"'. On Windows, run 'netsh advfirewall firewall show rule name=all' and search for these port rules. Check cloud security groups or network ACLs if applicable.
    Affected if Firewall rules explicitly allow external traffic on ports 1602, 1603, 1604, or 1636 from untrusted sources
  5. Confirm FTP service is active and accessible via debug port
    Attempt an anonymous FTP connection to port 1604 using 'ftp localhost 1604' or connect to the external IP on port 1604. Check if credentials or directory listings are accessible without authentication.
    Affected if FTP service on port 1604 accepts connections without requiring valid authentication credentials

The environment is affected if MINOVA TTA service is running with debug ports 1602-1604 or 1636 exposed to untrusted networks, particularly if port 1604 allows unauthenticated FTP access.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Immediately firewall or disable debug ports 1602, 1603, 1604, and 1636 from external access, rotate any exposed FTP credentials, and review the MINOVA TTA service configuration to ensure production instances do not expose debug interfaces.
