Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to bypass model access restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect authorization in model access control checks when validating access for a stored automation model ID. A remote user can rely on a pending role falling through the access-control logic to bypass model access restrictions.

This issue affects non-admin roles because private-model grants were enforced only for the exact role user.
