Description Sébastien Marie 2011-07-26 09:12:04 UTC
Using direct call to "/cgi-bin/koha/opac-addbybiblionumber.pl?biblionumber=xxx", an anonymous user is able to create Lists.

The new created list is owner by kohaadmin (at least on my site).
Comment 1 Owen Leonard 2011-09-20 15:11:10 UTC
Confirmed, although it doesn't look to me like the kohaadmin user can manage it. In the virtualshelves table the owner is NULL. If someone used this method to create a private list the administrator wouldn't have any way to remove it via the interface (not that anyone could see that it had been created).

I would propose to solve this issue in connection with report 7310 (working on it ..)
We should not allow anonymous to create a list. Another related issue is if you should allow anonymous to add a biblio to a public list. I think that we should not allow it either. Making a list or adding an entry is the privilege of known users.
