How broadly exploitable is this vulnerability?

The issue is exploitable by any authenticated user who can interact with the application and has the ability to inspect or modify client-side requests. The actual impact depends on which functions are insufficiently protected, but even low-privilege users may be able to perform actions that should be restricted.

Does exploitation require administrative access?

No. This class of vulnerability typically requires only basic authenticated access. The attacker does not need administrative privileges; instead, they bypass the intended restrictions by invoking endpoints directly or altering the front-end behavior.

What is the safest general fix pattern?

The safest approach is to enforce authorization on the server for every sensitive operation: introduce or strengthen a centralized authorization layer that checks the authenticated user's role and permissions before executing any action, and ensure no endpoint relies solely on UI state or client-side logic for enforcement.
