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
In CAXperts UPVWebServices 2.4.2212.603 through 2.7.6 and UDiTH Portal 2026.0.0 through 2026.2.0, an authenticated remote user can invoke an administrative API endpoint intended for privileged users. Due to missing authorization checks, this allows the attacker to deactivate the application's license.

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 · high confidence

This is a Broken Access Control vulnerability where authenticated non-privileged users can invoke administrative API endpoints due to missing authorization validation. An attacker with standard user credentials can access a privileged administrative function to deactivate the application's license, causing denial of service.

MitigationImplement role-based access control (RBAC) with explicit authorization checks on all administrative API endpoints to verify the user has sufficient privileges before executing sensitive operations like license management.

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. Confirm CAXperts product deployment
    Identify whether UPVWebServices or UDiTH Portal from CAXperts is installed in your environment. Check application inventory, running services, or installed packages for CAXperts-related components.
    Affected if CAXperts UPVWebServices or UDiTH Portal is present in the environment
  2. Locate the license deactivation API endpoint
    Find the API endpoint responsible for license deactivation within the CAXperts application. Review API documentation, source code, or intercept network traffic to identify endpoints handling license operations (keywords: license, deactivate).
    Affected if A license deactivation endpoint exists and is accessible via the API
  3. Test access with non-privileged user
    Authenticate to the application using an account without administrative privileges. Send a request to the license deactivation endpoint and verify whether the operation completes successfully without proper authorization.
    Affected if A non-privileged authenticated user can successfully invoke the license deactivation function
  4. Verify authorization configuration
    Inspect the source code or configuration for the license management API endpoint to determine whether role-based access control or privilege level verification is implemented before allowing license deactivation.
    Affected if No authorization check exists to verify user privilege level before license deactivation

The environment is affected if CAXperts UPVWebServices or UDiTH Portal is deployed and non-privileged users can successfully deactivate the license through the API without authorization checks.
