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 · unedited
Sensitive information disclosure and manipulation due to insufficient authorization checks. The following products are affected: Acronis Cyber Protect 17 (Linux, macOS, Windows) before build 41186, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Agent (Linux, macOS, Windows) before build 41124.

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 · high confidence

This is an authorization bypass vulnerability where insufficient access control checks allow authenticated users to disclose sensitive information and manipulate data they should not have access to. The flaw affects both Acronis Cyber Protect 17 and Cyber Protect Cloud Agent across Linux, macOS, and Windows platforms.

MitigationUpgrade to Acronis Cyber Protect 17 build 41186 or later, and Cyber Protect Cloud Agent build 41124 or later. Prioritize systems handling sensitive data given the combined disclosure and manipulation impact.

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. Check Acronis Cyber Protect 17 version on Windows
    Open Windows Registry Editor and navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Acronis\MMS\, or open Control Panel > Programs and Features and look for 'Acronis Cyber Protect 17' to see the installed version and build number
    Affected if The displayed version is earlier than 17.0.41186 or the build number is lower than 41186
  2. Check Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Agent version on Windows
    Open Windows Registry Editor and navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Acronis\MMS\, or run 'Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Where-Object {$_.Name -like "*Acronis*"}' in PowerShell to list installed Acronis components and their versions
    Affected if The agent version shows c25.x with build earlier than 41124, or any version before c25.10
  3. Check Acronis agent version on Linux
    Run 'rpm -qa | grep -i acronis' or 'dpkg -l | grep -i acronis' depending on the package manager to list installed Acronis packages, or check /var/lib/Acronis/ for installation info
    Affected if The installed package version is earlier than c25.10 or the build is lower than 41124
  4. Check Acronis agent version on macOS
    Run 'pkgutil --pkg-info=com.acronis.*' or check /Library/Acronis/ for installation files and version information
    Affected if The package version is earlier than c25.10 or shows a build number below 41124
  5. Verify access control configuration
    Review the Acronis management console or registry settings under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Acronis\MMS\ for any custom access control configurations, and audit user permissions within the Acronis management interface
    Affected if Non-administrative user accounts have been granted elevated privileges or there are custom permission rules that may bypass standard authorization checks

You are affected if any Acronis Cyber Protect 17 installation is earlier than build 41186, or any Acronis Cloud Agent is earlier than build c25.10 (41124) on any platform.
