The record
Several WebUI JSON endpoints enforce weaker permissions than the core API methods they invoke. This allows authenticated low-privileged users to execute `MODIFY` operations that should be denied by pyLoad's own permission model. Confirmed mismatches: - `ADD` user can reorder packages/files (`order_package`, `order_file`) via `/json/package_order` and `/json/link_order` - `DELETE` user can abort downloads (`stop_downloads`) via `/json/abort_link`
