**Description:** The module most security-critical behaviours have no enforced test coverage at the boundary that matters. There is no test that an unauthenticated request to a page or hub is rejected (which would have caught Admin-001/002/003), no test of the login -> cookie issuance round-trip (Admin-005), and the `AdminRoleGrantResolver` / `ClusterRoleClaims` authorization logic is exercised only in isolation. `InternalsVisibleTo` points at `ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Admin.Tests`, but the auth pipeline itself is not asserted end-to-end. Per `REVIEW-PROCESS.md` category 9 these are untested critical paths.
**Recommendation:** Add `WebApplicationFactory`-based integration tests asserting: (a) anonymous GET of each protected route returns 302->/login or 401; (b) anonymous hub connect is refused; (c) a valid login issues the cookie and a subsequent request is authorized; (d) a `ConfigViewer` is denied `CanPublish` pages. Wire the check into the `*.Admin.Tests` suite.
-**Resolution:** _(open)_
+**Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-22 — (a) covered by existing `PageAuthorizationTests`; (b) covered by existing `AuthEndpointsTests.Anonymous_hub_negotiate_is_rejected`; (c) covered by existing `AuthEndpointsTests.Valid_login_issues_the_auth_cookie_and_redirects_home`; (d) new `AdminAuthPipelineTests` adds a `WebApplicationFactory` with a `RoleInjectingHandler` that stamps requests with caller-supplied roles, asserting that `ConfigViewer` is denied `CanPublish`-gated pages (403/302) while `FleetAdmin` is permitted, and that a `FleetAdmin` session can reach protected pages.

+/// Covers the four cases identified in the finding:
+/// (a) anonymous access to every protected route is rejected (already in
+/// ; supplemented here with the mutating
+/// POST surface).
+/// (b) anonymous hub negotiate is rejected (already in
+/// ; complemented here).
+/// (c) a signed-in FleetAdmin can reach pages gated by the fallback policy and
+/// CanPublish pages.
+/// (d) a ConfigViewer (no FleetAdmin role) is denied CanPublish-gated
+/// pages while still being allowed through the fallback authenticated-user gate.
+///
+/// The test host uses a custom authentication scheme
+/// so tests can assign any role set without going through LDAP. The
+/// background service is stripped out so the host starts clean without DB access.
