CVE-2025-50904
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 · uneditedThere is an authentication bypass vulnerability in WinterChenS my-site thru commit 6c79286 (2025-06-11). An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to access /admin/ API without any token.
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 confidenceWinterChenS my-site has an authentication bypass vulnerability in the /admin/ API endpoints through commit 6c79286. Attackers can access administrative API functions without providing any authentication token, granting unauthorized access to sensitive administrative operations.

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 WinterChenS my-site installationLocate the application codebase or running service. Check for files or containers named 'my-site', 'winterchen', or similar variations. Identify the directory where the application is deployed.Affected if The application 'WinterChenS my-site' or 'Winterchens My Site' is present in the environment
-
Determine the version or commit hashInspect the application source code for version information. Look for version files, package.json, or git repository. If git is available, run 'git log' to identify the current commit hash and compare to commit 6c79286. Check build dates or deployment timestamps against 2025-06-11.Affected if The installed version is dated 2025-06-11 or earlier, or the git commit is 6c79286 or earlier (before the fix)
-
Verify /admin/ API endpoints existReview the application routing configuration or source code to confirm the presence of /admin/ API endpoints. Common locations include route definition files, controllers, or API specification files.Affected if The application exposes API endpoints under the /admin/ path
-
Test authentication requirement on /admin/ endpointsSend HTTP requests to /admin/ API endpoints (such as /admin/users, /admin/settings, or /admin/config) without including any authentication token, authorization header, or session cookie. Use tools like curl or Burp Suite to observe the response.Affected if The /admin/ API endpoints return successful responses (200 OK or similar) without requiring any authentication credentials, indicating the bypass is present
The environment is affected if WinterChenS my-site version is dated 2025-06-11 or earlier (or commits up to 6c79286) AND the /admin/ API endpoints are accessible without any authentication token or credentials.

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 authentication and authorization checks on all /admin/ API endpoints, requiring valid tokens or session credentials for access.
