07 Remediation
Inductive Automation has determined that this issue is a default-value configuration, not a flaw in the access control itself. The security control enforces exactly what the "Create Project Role(s)" setting specifies; because the setting shipped blank, no role was required to create a project. Populating the setting fully closes the vulnerability. Inductive Automation recommends users upgrade to 8.1.54 or later (or the latest 8.3 version), which restricts project creation to Designer sessions and no longer relies on this setting. Users who must remain on an earlier 8.1 version can fully remediate the issue by setting "Create Project Role(s)" to match their Designer Role. Once the setting is populated, only users holding that role can create projects.
