CVE intelligence and bounded remediation

CVE-2023-23690 — Cloud Mobility for Dell EMC Storage, versions 1.3.0.X and below contains an Improper Check for Certificate Revocation vulnerability

High CVSS 7

Cloud Mobility for Dell EMC Storage, versions 1.3.0.X and below contains an Improper Check for Certificate Revocation vulnerability. A threat actor does not need any specific privileges to potentially exploit this vulnerability. An attacker could perform a man-in-the-middle attack and eavesdrop on encrypted communications from Cloud Mobility to Cloud Storage devices. Exploitation could lead to the compromise of secret and sensitive information, cloud storage connection downtime, and the integrity of the connection to the Cloud devices.

Matched remediation archetype

Cryptography, certificate, signature, and channel validation

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Inventory affected algorithms, key uses, trust stores, certificate validation settings, random sources, and plaintext channels across clients and services.
  • Determine which secrets, identities, signatures, or data protections depend on the affected primitive or validation path.
  • Check debug, compatibility, fallback, and hostname or audience override settings in build and runtime configuration.

Remediate safely

  • Use a maintained platform cryptographic API with approved algorithms, modes, parameters, randomness, and full peer identity validation.
  • Remove insecure fallback and validation bypasses; separate keys by purpose and load them from managed secret storage.
  • Plan rotation or reissuance for affected keys, certificates, tokens, hashes, or ciphertext and document compatibility sequencing.
