Summary

Fix critical severity security issue in mern/server/routes/record.js.

Vulnerability

Field Value
ID V-001
Severity CRITICAL
Scanner multi_agent_ai
Rule V-001
File mern/server/routes/record.js:15
Assessment Likely exploitable

Description: All five REST API endpoints in record.js (GET /, GET /:id, POST /, PATCH /:id, DELETE /:id) lack any authentication middleware or credential verification. The Express router processes all requests without checking for authentication tokens, session cookies, or API keys, allowing complete unauthenticated access to all CRUD operations on employee records.

Evidence

Exploitation scenario: An attacker with network access can directly call any endpoint without credentials:

Scanner confirmation: multi_agent_ai rule V-001 flagged this pattern.

Production code: This file is in the production codebase, not test-only code.

Threat Model Context

This route handler appears to be publicly accessible.
