CVE-2007-1249
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 · uneditedMoveSortedContentAction in C1 Financial Services Contelligent 9.1.4 does not check "the additional environment security configuration," which allows remote attackers with write permissions to reorder components.
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 confidenceThe MoveSortedContentAction component in C1 Financial Services Contelligent 9.1.4 fails to verify an 'additional environment security configuration,' allowing authenticated users with write permissions to reorder content components beyond their intended scope. This is an authorization bypass where the action accepts the user's permissions without validating against the additional security layer.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify installed Contelligent versionCheck the Contelligent application or system information to confirm the exact version number is 9.1.4Affected if version is 9.1.4
-
Locate MoveSortedContentAction componentSearch the Contelligent application files for the MoveSortedContentAction component or class fileAffected if the MoveSortedContentAction component is present in the installation
-
Verify write permissions configurationReview the user permission settings in Contelligent to identify accounts with write permissions on content componentsAffected if users with write permissions exist in the system
-
Check additional environment security configurationInspect the security configuration files or settings for the 'additional environment security configuration' referenced in the authorization flowAffected if the additional security layer is not being validated by MoveSortedContentAction or is misconfigured
-
Test component reordering scope restrictionsIf you have access, attempt to reorder content components outside your authorized scope using MoveSortedContentActionAffected if reordering succeeds beyond the intended scope despite limited permissions
A user is affected if they are running Contelligent C1 Financial Services version 9.1.4 with the MoveSortedContentAction component accessible to users who have write permissions but the additional environment security configuration is not enforced.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataAdd explicit authorization checks for the additional environment security configuration in MoveSortedContentAction before executing component reordering operations, ensuring all security layers are enforced.
