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
Missing Authorization vulnerability in inspry Agency Toolkit agency-toolkit allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Agency Toolkit: from n/a through <= 1.0.24.

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 confidence

Missing authorization vulnerability in inspry Agency Toolkit allows exploiting incorrectly configured access control security levels. This means an attacker could potentially access functionality or data without proper authorization due to missing or inadequate access control checks in the application.

MitigationUpdate Agency Toolkit to a version beyond 1.0.24 that includes proper authorization controls and ensure access control security levels are correctly configured per vendor guidance.

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. Identify installed Agency Toolkit version
    Locate the version file or check the application header/admin panel for the current version number of inspry Agency Toolkit. Common locations include a version.php file, about page, or admin dashboard.
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0.24 or earlier (any version prior to the fixed release)
  2. Locate access control security level configuration
    Search for configuration files related to security levels, access control, or authorization settings within the Agency Toolkit installation directory. Look for files named config.php, security.php, access.php, or similar.
    Affected if Access control security levels are set to a low or misconfigured level, or if authorization checks are disabled entirely in the configuration
  3. Verify authorization middleware is present
    Examine the application source code for authorization middleware or access control functions. Check if critical endpoints have proper permission checks before executing actions.
    Affected if Authorization middleware is missing or bypassed for sensitive functions, meaning the code lacks proper access control validation before allowing actions
  4. Check for role-based access control enforcement
    Inspect the user role and permission system to confirm that role-based access controls are actually being enforced at the application level, not just defined.
    Affected if User roles are defined but not enforced, allowing unauthorized access to privileged functionality

You are affected if Agency Toolkit version is 1.0.24 or earlier AND access control security levels are misconfigured or missing proper authorization enforcement.

Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
