GHSA-w5xj-99cg-rccm Decidim amendments can be accepted or rejected by anyone

• RubyGems decidim-core: >= 0.31.0.rc1, < 0.31.1 → fixed in 0.31.1 • RubyGems decidim-core: >= 0.19.0, < 0.30.5 → fixed in 0.30.5

Impact The vulnerability allows any registered and authenticated user to accept or reject any amendments. The impact is on any users who have created proposals where the amendments feature is enabled. This also elevates the user accepting the amendment as the author of the original proposal as people amending proposals are provided coauthorship on the coauthorable resources. The only check done when accepting or rejecting amendments is whether the amendment reactions are enabled for the component: https://github.com/decidim/decidim/blob/9d6c3d2efe5a83bb02e095824ff5998d96a75eb7/decidim-core/app/permissions/decidim/permissions.rb#L107 The permission checks have been changed at 1b99136 which was introduced in released version 0.19.0. I have not investigated whether prior versions are also affected. Patches Not available Workarounds Disable amendment reactions for the amendable component (e.g. proposals).
