Description

The verification admin mutation flow allows accessing, verifying, and rejecting participants records from another tenant.

Technical description

The verification admin controllers loads pending authorization id with a raw Authorization.find(...) and then authorizes the record without checking whether it belongs to current organization.
Reproduction steps:
  1. An org2 participant uploads their ID:
decidim-verification-01
  1. An admin from another organisation, in this case org1, is able to open the ID from org2 by opening request 35, e.g http://localhost:3001/admin/id documents/pending authorizations/35/confirmations/new
decidim-verification-02
  1. The admin then approves this request by looking up the ID in the picture (not shown in this image, but a real ID would expose this)
decidim-verification-03
  1. Now the request has been approved, which can be seen from the org2 participant authorizations page:
decidim-verification-04

Impact

A tenant admin can access, reject or approve another tenant's id documents requests.
