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 Soft8Soft LLC Verge3D verge3d allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects Verge3D: from n/a through <= 4.9.4.

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 Verge3D allows exploitation due to incorrectly configured Access Control Security Levels, potentially permitting unauthorized access to sensitive functionality or data.

MitigationReview and properly configure the access control security levels in the Verge3D deployment according to vendor documentation, ensuring all sensitive endpoints and functions require appropriate authorization.

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. Locate Verge3D installation
    Search for Verge3D application files, typically found in web server directories (e.g., /verge3d/, /apps/, or custom application folders). Check for v3d.js, v3d_app.js, or app configuration files.
    Affected if Verge3D is installed and accessible in the environment
  2. Identify security configuration files
    Look for configuration files named app_config.json, security.json, or similar within the Verge3D application directory. These typically contain accessControl, securityLevel, or permissions settings.
    Affected if A security configuration file exists and is accessible
  3. Inspect Access Control Security Levels
    Open the security configuration file and examine the securityLevel, accessControl, or authorization settings. Verify whether sensitive endpoints/functions have securityLevel set to a value requiring authentication (e.g., 'user', 'admin', or similar).
    Affected if Security levels are set to a permissive or unauthenticated state for sensitive operations
  4. Check for unrestricted sensitive endpoints
    Review the application configuration for exposed functions, data exports, or API endpoints. Identify if critical functions (data retrieval, file access, user management) lack authorization requirements.
    Affected if Sensitive functionality is accessible without authentication or with insufficient access controls
  5. Test sensitive function access
    If possible, attempt to access known sensitive functions or endpoints (e.g., data export, configuration reading) without providing credentials. Compare behavior against the documented expected behavior.
    Affected if Sensitive functions execute or return data without authorization credentials

A user is affected if Verge3D is deployed with Access Control Security Levels configured to permit unauthenticated or insufficiently authorized access to sensitive functionality or data.
