What it is

⚡ An oversight in Easy Form can let anyone with a little know-how slip right through the cracks!

This missing authorization flaw lets unauthorized users access restricted functionalities, potentially compromising sensitive data or altering form submissions. Imagine the chaos if someone could change your order in a restaurant or see all the secret ingredients; it could lead to absolutely devastating consequences for both users and admins!
