When the authorization to control management operations is secured using the Role Based Access Control provider a user without the required privileges can suspend or resume the server.
A user with a Monitor or Auditor role is supposed to have only read access permissions and should not be able to suspend the server.
The vulnerability is caused by the Suspend and Resume handlers not performing authorization checks to validate whether the current user has the required permissions to proceed with the action.
When a server is suspended, the server will stop receiving user requests. The resume handle does the opposite; it will cause a suspended server to start accepting user requests.
Standalone server (Domain mode is not affected).
RBAC access control must be enabled with RBAC provider.
There is a user with a Monitor or Auditor role.
