## Description

##### Impact
_What kind of vulnerability is it?_

An authenticated user who is only a viewer on project team-a requests GET /api/v1/projects/team-a/dashboards?project=finance-secret (or simply GET /api/v1/datasources?project=finance-secret) and receives the full list of the finance-secret project's dashboards and datasource specifications, despite having no role on that project. This defeats Perses' project-level tenant isolation for all project-scoped read resources.

_Who is impacted?_

Any authenticated user reads every project's dashboards, datasources, variables across tenants.

##### Patches
_Has the problem been patched? What versions should users upgrade to?_

##### Workarounds
None
