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 Authentication for Critical Function vulnerability in Drupal AJAX Dashboard allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.This issue affects AJAX Dashboard: from 0.0.0 before 3.1.0.

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

A missing authentication vulnerability in the Drupal AJAX Dashboard module allows unauthenticated attackers to access critical functions that should require authentication. This bypass occurs due to incorrectly configured access control security levels in affected versions prior to 3.1.0.

MitigationUpgrade AJAX Dashboard module to version 3.1.0 or later. Verify that access control configurations are properly set after the upgrade.

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 AJAX Dashboard module version
    Check the module's info.yml file or the Drupal admin interface at /admin/modules to locate the Ceriumsoft Ajax Dashboard module and note its version number
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 3.1.0
  2. Review module access control settings
    Navigate to the AJAX Dashboard module configuration page at /admin/config/ajax-dashboard/settings and examine the access control permissions section for any misconfigurations that allow anonymous access
    Affected if Access control is set to permit unauthenticated users to critical functions or administrative actions
  3. Inspect AJAX callback endpoints
    Use browser developer tools or a web proxy to trace AJAX requests made by the dashboard and check if sensitive endpoints under /ajax-dashboard/ respond without requiring session authentication
    Affected if AJAX endpoints return valid data or execute actions when accessed without a logged-in session
  4. Test unauthenticated access to dashboard functions
    Logout completely from the Drupal site and attempt to access known AJAX Dashboard URLs or API endpoints that should require admin privileges
    Affected if The system returns successful responses or allows configuration changes without authentication

You are affected if the Ceriumsoft Ajax Dashboard module version is below 3.1.0 and unauthenticated users can access or modify dashboard functionality.
