CVE-2025-26523
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 · uneditedThis vulnerability exists in RupeeWeb trading platform due to insufficient authorization controls on certain API endpoints handling addition and deletion operations. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an authenticated remote attacker to modify information belonging to other user accounts.
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 confidenceThis is an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability in RupeeWeb trading platform's API endpoints. Due to insufficient authorization checks on add and delete operations, an authenticated attacker can manipulate object references in API requests to modify or delete data belonging to other user accounts.

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 RupeeWeb installationSearch for RupeeWeb application files, check running services/processes, or review web server configurations for RupeeWeb referencesAffected if RupeeWeb trading platform is present in the environment
-
Determine RupeeWeb versionCheck application version files, about pages, API version headers, or configuration files for version informationAffected if Version cannot be determined or is unknown/older before the fix
-
Review API endpoint configurationExamine API route configurations for add (POST/PUT) and delete (DELETE) endpoints in the application's routing filesAffected if API endpoints for add/delete operations exist and are accessible
-
Inspect authorization middleware on API endpointsReview the code handling API requests to verify if authorization checks validate user ownership before performing add/delete operationsAffected if Authorization middleware is missing or does not verify object ownership before add/delete actions
-
Check for indirect object reference implementationVerify if the application uses indirect object references (mapping internal IDs to external references) rather than direct object IDs in API requestsAffected if API accepts direct object identifiers without mapping or validation
-
Test API authorization boundariesUsing an authenticated test account, attempt to modify or delete an object by referencing another user's object identifier in API requestsAffected if Requests succeed for objects belonging to different users without proper authorization errors
The environment is affected if RupeeWeb trading platform is running and the API add/delete endpoints lack proper authorization checks that verify the authenticated user owns or has permission to access the requested resource.

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 dataImplement proper authorization validation on all API endpoints to verify the authenticated user owns or has permission to access the requested resource before performing add/delete operations, and consider using indirect object references.
