Workarounds
ADP: To reduce the attack surface, restrict network access to ChromaDB instances to only trusted clients and internal networks. Implement network segmentation and firewall rules to limit exposure of the ChromaDB service. This operational control helps prevent unauthorized access to the service, although it does not address the internal authorization bypass for already authenticated users.
