# 🟠 POST /api/points/admin/add admin check is inside handler only — no middleware-level enforcement
**Severity:** major
**Domain:** Admin
**Labels:** security, bug, backend, major, missing-auth
## Description
POST /api/points/admin/add registers authenticateToken only at the route level. Admin role check runs inside the handler. This means the handler code runs before the role is verified, creating potential for edge-case bypass.
## Current Behavior
The handler code begins executing for any authenticated user before the role check fires.
## Expected Behavior
Apply authorizeRoles('admin') middleware at the route level.
