            Bug ID: 24067
           Summary: Refactor REST API allow-owner authorization logic
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: REST api
          Assignee: koha-bugs at lists.koha-community.org
          Reporter: lari.taskula at hypernova.fi

It is possible to authorize patron an access to their own resources by defining
"allow-owner" under x-koha-authorization block in endpoint's OpenAPI
specification.

Currently the logic for this type of authorization is centralized under
Koha::REST::V1::Auth::check_object_ownership with some messy, hard to
understand and possibly at some point in future even insecure logic.

A better and more flexible solution is to have each REST API controller handle
the "allow-owner" authorization on their own.
