Actual vulnerabilities (not unauthorized, but significant) 1. Read-only users can post replies (permission overflow) `newpost` only checks read permissions; there are no write permissions: forum.post.php; The `auth_write` permission exists on the `newtopic` endpoint but not on the `newpost` endpoint. Result: A user with only read (R) permission can bypass the interface and send a new reply directly via a POST request. This is not an edit or delete vulnerability, but a write permission overflow. my blog: https://rootali.net
