Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote user to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in Api/Admin endpoints configured with auth => true when processing requests with session authentication fallback. A remote user can send a request with a Referer header to access the API without holding a JWT to disclose sensitive information.

The issue affects operator accounts whose default group has auth_prefix set to 'Admin', and exploitation relies on session authentication becoming active for the Api/Admin prefix.
