The access control of an application must be properly implemented in order to restrict access to resources to authorized entities otherwise this could lead to vulnerabilities:

Granting correct permissions to users, applications, groups or roles and defining required permissions that allow access to a resource is sensitive, must therefore be done with care. For instance, it is obvious that only users with administrator privilege should be authorized to add/remove the administrator permission of another user.
