Executive Summary

The vulnerability in PlaciPy version 1.0.0 is due to the backend's student submission routes verifying user authentication but failing to enforce object-level authorization. This means that while the system checks if a user is logged in, it does not properly check if the user owns or is authorized to access specific student submission objects.

Impact Analysis

Because the system does not enforce ownership checks, an authenticated user could potentially access or manipulate student submissions that they do not own or should not have access to. This could lead to unauthorized data exposure or modification within the placement management system.
