Missing permission checks in Micro Focus Application Automation Tools Plugin

Micro Focus Application Automation Tools Plugin 6.7 and earlier does not perform permission checks in methods implementing form validation.

This allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to attacker-specified URLs using attacker-specified username and password.

Additionally, these form validation methods do not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability.

Micro Focus Application Automation Tools Plugin 6.8 requires POST requests and Overall/Administer permission for the affected form validation methods.
