Technical details

The POST /Api/V8/module/{moduleName}/{id}/relationships/{linkFieldName} endpoint fails to enforce edit permissions when writing foreign key changes to one-to-many relationships, checking only view and list permissions instead. An authenticated low-privilege user can exploit this to bypass authorization controls via direct API calls, potentially modifying record ownership and security-relevant relationships across the system.
