# Issue: Implement Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for Dispute Endpoints ## Description Implement role-based access control for dispute-related endpoints to ensure that only authorized users (moderators and admins) can perform actions like changing dispute status or making final decisions. ## Acceptance Criteria - [x] Middleware `requireRole` is properly implemented and tested - [x] Dispute endpoints are secured with appropriate role checks - [x] Integration tests verify role-based access control - [x] Documentation of RBAC for dispute system is updated ## Related Files - `backend/src/middleware/requireRole.js` - `backend/src/controllers/dispute.controller.js` - `backend/src/routes/disputes.routes.js` - `backend/test/roles.test.js` ## Notes This task builds upon the existing roles and permissions documentation to enforce access control at the API level.
