Core: WRITE permission is not enforced for update/delete requests

Reported by: jri Owned by: jri
Priority: Major Milestone: Release 4.8.1
Component: DeepaMehta Standard Distribution Version: 4.8
Keywords: Cc: dgf, Malte, JuergeN, carolina
Complexity: 3 Area: Application Framework / API
Module: deepamehta-core

Description

A logged in user who has no WRITE permission for a certain topic/association is still able to update/delete it via REST API. So, the backend is not properly secured.

Note: the DM Webclient would never send such a request in the first place, but other clients could do so.
