Description: cool-admin-midway through 8.0.0 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability that allows non-superadmin admins to read, modify, or delete other admins' roles by supplying arbitrary role ids. Attackers holding ordinary sys:role permissions can call /admin/sys/role/info, update, or delete with another admin's role id to rewrite menu and department grants, changing other users' effective access.
