Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stemmed from missing session activation checks in service handlers. The fix in PR #1015 added session activation verification through the is_activated() method. The UaProcessor.process_request function would handle service requests without checking session state, while InternalSession.create_session enabled session creation without requiring activation for subsequent operations. These missing checks allowed unauthenticated access to address space operations via the OPC UA services.
