Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from missing authorization checks in query handling. The GitHub commit diff shows the patched version added 'statement.authorize' and 'statement.validate' calls to IndexQueryHandler.scala. In vulnerable versions, these security checks were absent, allowing authenticated users to execute queries without proper RBAC validation. The direct addition of these security-critical method calls in the fix confirms this was the vulnerability vector.
