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
MCO does not properly enforce authorization checks in the /customer/servlet/mco/webapi/admin-view-hierarchy/get-acl-tree-structure endpoint. An authenticated, low-privileged user can retrieve administrator access control structures without proper authorization checks. This may expose sensitive permission mappings and internal configuration details. Because vendor contact attempts were unsuccessful, the vulnerability has only been confirmed in version 25.3.3.1 but may also affect other versions.

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

The /customer/servlet/mco/webapi/admin-view-hierarchy/get-acl-tree-structure endpoint lacks proper authorization checks, allowing any authenticated user—including low-privileged accounts—to retrieve administrator-level access control tree structures. This exposes sensitive permission mappings and internal RBAC configuration details.

MitigationImplement role-based authorization checks on the affected endpoint to ensure only users with administrative privileges can access ACL tree structures; validate user roles server-side before returning any ACL data.

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. Verify Mycomplianceoffice installation
    Identify if Mycomplianceoffice is installed in the environment by checking for the application, its web services, or associated processes
    Affected if Mycomplianceoffice is not present in the environment
  2. Check installed product version
    Retrieve the installed version of Mycomplianceoffice. Common methods include: checking the application UI 'About' section, querying the web interface version endpoint, or reviewing installation manifests/logs
    Affected if The installed version matches 25.3.3.1 exactly (note: '=' notation indicates this specific version is affected)
  3. Confirm endpoint existence
    Attempt to access the endpoint /customer/servlet/mco/webapi/admin-view-hierarchy/get-acl-tree-structure via HTTP GET request (requires authentication)
    Affected if The endpoint responds with HTTP 200 or returns any data, indicating it is exposed
  4. Test authorization with low-privilege account
    Authenticate using a non-administrator or low-privileged user account and make a request to the affected endpoint
    Affected if The endpoint returns ACL tree structure data, permission mappings, or RBAC configuration details to the low-privileged user
  5. Inspect response for sensitive data
    Examine the response payload from the endpoint for exposed permission hierarchies, role mappings, or internal access control configuration
    Affected if The response contains administrative-level ACL data, role definitions, or internal RBAC configuration that should be restricted to administrators

The environment is affected if Mycomplianceoffice version 25.3.3.1 is installed AND the /customer/servlet/mco/webapi/admin-view-hierarchy/get-acl-tree-structure endpoint returns ACL tree data to non-administrative users.

Mitigation

Implement role-based authorization checks on the affected endpoint to ensure only users with administrative privileges can access ACL tree structures; validate user roles server-side before returning any ACL data.
