What is CVE-2024-8509?

A vulnerability exists in Forklift Controller that allows attackers to bypass authorization measures by leveraging bearer token authentication. The system does not perform robust verification against the Authorization header, which can lead to unauthorized access. Specifically, if a valid bearer token is supplied, the system will return a success response (HTTP 200) along with the requested data. Without a valid token, a 401 Unauthorized response is issued. This oversight can potentially expose sensitive information and requires immediate attention from users to bolster security measures.
