I'm sorry for the double post).
Hello,
I have a users table with a role field. When a user logs in the Auth
component stores that users info inside of:
$session->read('Auth.User.role')
Then inside of my view I can do something like this:
<?php if ($session->read('Auth.User.role') == 'administrator'): ?>
Give access to something only an admin should have, like an edit
button or something
<?php endif; ?>
I'm wondering if this kind of access control is safe or is there a way
a user could mess with this and set their session equal to
administrator? My sessions are stored in the database.
