Submit #856184: diaowen DWSurvey v6.14.0 Improper Access Controlsinfo

Titlediaowen DWSurvey v6.14.0 Improper Access Controls
DescriptionThe system's endpoint for modifying survey status lacks proper authorization checks on the current user. Any authenticated regular user, merely by knowing another user's survey ID, can illegally change that survey's publication or closing status (e.g., altering a survey from "design" mode to "published" or "closed"). After successfully exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker can verify the status tampering through the survey details query endpoint.
