## Summary

Frappe Builder, a website-building tool for the Frappe framework, is affected. Any logged-in user without guest access can use its prompt-improvement feature to make AI requests billed to the site owner's stored OpenRouter API key, allowing them to consume the owner's paid credits.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- frappe builder: from 1.33.0, fixed in 1.36.0

## Description

Frappe Builder versions 1.33.0 before1.36.0 contain a missing authorization vulnerability in the improve_prompt endpoint that allows any authenticated non-Guest session to invoke LLM completions without proper permission checks. Attackers can call the improve_prompt API to leverage the site owner's stored OpenRouter API key via resolve_api_key, consuming paid LLM credits and effectively turning the site into a free LLM proxy.
