The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to an error when using @AuthorizeReturnObject or the Spring Security produced AuthorizationAdvisorProxyFactory @Bean to wrap objects, which means that that annotations like @PreFilter and @PreAuthorize may take no affect on these wrapped objects.
