Description
FINDING 4: OpenAI Assistants Vector Store - No Auth on CRUD Operations
Severity: HIGH (CVSS ~8.1)
Type: CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function)
File: `packages/server/src/routes/openai-assistants-vector-store/index.ts`
Description: ALL CRUD endpoints for OpenAI Assistants Vector Store have no authentication middleware AND the route path `/api/v1/openai-assistants-vector-store` is NOT in `WHITELIST_URLS`. However, it is also NOT protected by the main auth middleware when accessed via API key — the route requires API key auth (not whitelisted), but NO permission checks exist on any operation.
The real issue is that the routes have no `checkAnyPermission()` middleware, meaning any authenticated user regardless of role can:
• Create vector stores
• Upload files to vector stores
• Delete vector stores and files
• Modify any vector store
Evidence:
```typescript
// No permission middleware on any route
router.post('/', controller.createAssistantVectorStore) // No permission check
router.put(['/', '/:id'], controller.updateAssistantVectorStore) // No permission check
router.delete(['/', '/:id'], controller.deleteAssistantVectorStore) // No permission check
router.post('/:id', getMulterStorage().array('files'), controller.uploadFilesToAssistantVectorStore) // No permission check
```
Impact: Any authenticated user can manipulate OpenAI vector stores, upload malicious files, delete data, or exfiltrate stored documents regardless of their assigned permissions.
