What it is

🚨 A design flaw in Simofa could leave your API routes exposed to the public! It’s like leaving your front door wide open, thinking you locked it. 🔥 Imagine a restaurant where the kitchen door is supposed to be locked, but it's not. A hungry visitor can just waltz in and access everything, including confidential recipes! That's what's happening here with some routes that should absolutely require authentication. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to access sensitive APIs without any credentials, potentially compromising your entire application. They could view, modify, or manipulate data—imagine a thief getting into your house and taking whatever they want! This is critical and absolutely needs your attention.
