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 runZero Platform version
    Access the platform's administration interface or check system information to determine the currently installed version number
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 4.0.260123.0
  2. Verify saved queries feature is in use
    Check if any saved queries have been created in the platform by reviewing the saved queries configuration or database records
    Affected if Saved queries exist in the system and the platform version is 4.0.260123.0
  3. Audit user privileges
    Review user accounts and their privilege levels, specifically looking for accounts with high privileges that could execute saved queries
    Affected if High-privilege accounts exist on the platform version 4.0.260123.0 with saved queries enabled
  4. Inspect database for anomalous SQL activity
    Review database logs or audit trails for unexpected or unauthorized SQL commands being executed, particularly those originating from saved query executions
    Affected if Suspicious SQL commands appear in logs related to saved queries on the affected version

A system is affected if it runs runZero Platform version 4.0.260123.0 with the saved queries feature enabled and high-privilege users present.
