An issue was discovered in Appsmith before 1.51. A user on Appsmith that doesn't have admin permissions can trigger the restart API on Appsmith, causing a server restart. This is still within the Appsmith container, and the impact is limited to Appsmith's own server only, but there is a denial of service because it can be continually restarted. This is due to incorrect access control checks, which should check for super user permissions on the incoming request.

Se detectó un problema en Appsmith antes de la versión 1.51. Un usuario de Appsmith sin permisos de administrador puede activar la API de reinicio, lo que provoca el reinicio del servidor. Esto ocurre dentro del contenedor de Appsmith y el impacto se limita a su propio servidor, pero se produce una denegación de servicio porque puede reiniciarse continuamente. Esto se debe a comprobaciones de control de acceso incorrectas, que deberían verificar los permisos de superusuario en la solicitud entrante.
