Description
Solution
Issue:
Let’s take an example of performing a search for a CVE (notation CVE-YYYY-####). The issue occurs while using the global search feature and not on the search box around the tasks module.
We created alerts with names “CVE-2017-2654” “CVE” “2017” and “2654” and searched for “CVE-2017-2654” in global search.
in 4.10.3 it gave the search results for “CVE OR 2017 OR 2654” but did not search for “CVE-2017-2654” as a complete word
Root cause:
CyOPs
reads the dash character (-) as space. It also disregards quotation
marks placed around a full CVE. In the above example, this causes it to
seemingly perform three OR searches (CVE OR Year OR four-digit string.).
This makes searching for a CVE difficult.
Solution
Fix: 4.11 and above has this issue resolved.
In 4.11.1 it gave the search results for “CVE-2017-2654 OR CVE OR 2017 OR 2654”
Found in Version:
4.10.X and previous
Reference Id - #35647
