Summary

The role-authorization lookup defaults to granting access when a request handler's name is absent from the role requirements table, instead of defaulting to deny. Any handler not explicitly registered is reachable by any authenticated user regardless of role, and newly added handlers are fail-open by default.

Risk Assessment

An authenticated low-privileged user can reach functionality that should be restricted to specific roles, leading to privilege escalation. Newly deployed features remain unprotected until manually added to the table.

Recommendation

Change the authorization default to fail-closed (deny by default) and verify that all existing handlers are explicitly registered in the role requirements table.

Original NVD description (English source)

The application's role-authorization lookup defaults to granting access when a request handler's name is not present in its table of role requirements, rather than defaulting to deny. Any request handler that is not explicitly registered in this table is reachable by any authenticated user regardless of their assigned role, and any newly added handler is fail-open by default until explicitly added to the table.
