Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stemmed from REST endpoints missing authentication annotations. The patch added @RolesAllowed and security requirements to ConfigResource, FsResource, and MoveResource, indicating these were previously unprotected. Removed resources (LoginResource, ReadResource, WriteResource) showed deprecated endpoints that lacked authorization checks. The CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) and commit message referencing 'required authentication' confirm these functions were vulnerable.
