for their enrollment when sending data upload requests. Authenticated and privileged users of one enrollment could have abused an endpoint to redirect existing submission channels to a dataset they control. An endpoint handling domain validation allowed unauthenticated users to enumerate existing enrollments. Finally, other endpoints allowed enumerating if a resource with a known RID exists across enrollments. The affected service has been patched with version 0.815.0 and automatically deployed to all Apollo-managed Foundry instances.

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Documented procedures facilitate correct implementation and ongoing management of authorization decisions.
Periodic reviews identify and correct flaws in authorization decisions or enforcement.
The control's documentation requirement reduces improper authorization by ensuring only mission-justified actions bypass authentication.
Establishing permitted attributes and values, plus auditing changes, ensures authorization decisions are based on correctly managed policy data.
Explicitly mandates authorizing remote access types before permitting connections, directly mitigating improper authorization.
The control explicitly requires authorization of each wireless access type prior to permitting connections.
Mandating explicit authorization of mobile device connections reduces the risk of improper authorization decisions for system access.
Specifying access authorizations for each account and requiring approvals for account requests enforces proper authorization decisions.
