Summary
LavaLite CMS 10.1.0 is vulnerable to Incorrect Access Control. An authenticated user with low-level privileges (User role) can directly access the admin backend by logging in through /admin/login. The vulnerability exists because the admin and user authentication guards share the same user provider without role-based access control verification.
