Serverless Offline 8.0.0 returns a 403 HTTP status code for a route that has a trailing / character, which might cause a developer to implement incorrect access control, because the actual behavior within the Amazon AWS environment is a 200 HTTP status code (i.e., possibly greater than expected permissions).

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on n/a, serverless-offline, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
