Harden access control for queues/jobs - #1151
Conversation
Any authenticated user, regardless of role or queue membership, could enumerate every MRT queue in an org and read or dequeue/lock every job in them -- including CSAM/NCMEC-designated queues -- because Org.mrtQueues, Query.manualReviewQueue, Query.getTotalPendingJobsCount, and Mutation.dequeueManualReviewJob all resolved queues via the *Dangerously*BypassPermissioning helpers with no permission or membership check. Switch those four call sites to getReviewableQueuesForUser, the existing membership-aware lookup already used correctly elsewhere (e.g. RoutingRule.destinationQueue, user.ts's reviewableQueues resolver). Add the missing auth check on ManualReviewQueue.jobs (defense-in-depth; not independently reachable today). The *Dangerously*BypassPermissioning primitives themselves are kept -- RoutingRule.destinationQueue uses the same bypass correctly, gated behind EDIT_MRT_QUEUES. Fixes #1150 Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

nit: this function makes it ever so slightly harder to read the tests, i think, because it's an extra layer of indirection for little benefit
Co-authored-by: Cassidy James <c@ssidyjam.es>
Resolves a conflict in the ManualReviewQueue.jobs resolver. main added a lockToken argument and an authentication guard that only ran on the lockToken path; this branch had hoisted an equivalent guard to the top of the resolver. Kept main's signature and the hoisted guard, and dropped the now-redundant second one. One behavior note: jobs queried without a lockToken now throw for an unauthenticated caller, which is the point of this branch.
