CVE-2023-50341
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 · uneditedHCL DRYiCE MyXalytics is impacted by Improper Access Control (Obsolete web pages) vulnerability. Discovery of outdated and accessible web pages, reflects a "Missing Access Control" vulnerability, which could lead to inadvertent exposure of sensitive information and/or exposing a vulnerable endpoint.
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 confidenceHCL DRYiCE MyXalytics contains obsolete web pages that lack proper access control mechanisms. These outdated pages remain accessible to unauthorized users, potentially exposing sensitive information or providing access to vulnerable endpoints.

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 version of MyXalyticsLocate the HCL DRYiCE MyXalytics installation directory and check the product version information, typically found in version files, about dialog, or installation metadata within the product's root directoryAffected if The installed version matches 5.9, 6.0, or 6.1
-
Enumerate web application endpointsReview the application's web configuration files, WAR deployment descriptors, or URL mappings to identify all accessible web pages and endpoints served by the applicationAffected if The application exposes web endpoints and obsolete pages are present in the deployment
-
Identify obsolete or legacy web pagesExamine the web application structure for deprecated, test, sample, or legacy pages that are no longer actively maintained - look for old filenames, backup files, or known legacy functionality in the web content directoriesAffected if Obsolete web pages exist within the application's web root or deployed content
-
Test unauthenticated access to web pagesAttempt to access identified obsolete pages from an unauthenticated browser session or using curl/wget without providing credentials - verify whether the pages load without authentication prompts or redirectsAffected if Obsolete pages are accessible without authentication or authorization checks
-
Verify access control configurationsInspect the application's security configuration, web.xml, or access control settings to determine whether proper authorization rules are defined for all endpoints including legacy pagesAffected if No access control restrictions are configured for obsolete endpoints
The environment is affected if HCL DRYiCE MyXalytics version 5.9, 6.0, or 6.1 is installed and obsolete web pages are accessible without proper authentication or authorization controls.

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 dataIdentify and remove or properly secure all obsolete web pages, implement appropriate access controls for remaining legacy functionality, and conduct a comprehensive review of the application's URL landscape.
