Missing Access Control In `OperatorVCS::queueVaultRemoval` & `OperatorVCS::removeVault` Can Lead to Unwanted Removal of Vaults

Summary

The OperatorVCS::queueVaultRemoval function allows for vaults to be queued for removal. The OperatorVCS::removeVault function is the one that actually removes the vault from operation. However, in both of these functions there is no access control. No checks to see who is the address that is trying to queue or actually remove the vault.

Vulnerability Details

/**
* @notice Queues a vault for removal
* @dev a vault can only be queued for removal if the operator has been removed from the
* Chainlink staking contract
* @param _index index of vault
*/
function queueVaultRemoval(uint256 _index) external {
// @audit ?? Missing access control here? Anyone can queue to remove vault?
address vault = address(vaults[_index]);
if (!IVault(vault).isRemoved()) revert OperatorNotRemoved();
for (uint256 i = 0; i < vaultsToRemove.length; ++i) {
if (vaultsToRemove[i] == vault) revert VaultRemovalAlreadyQueued();
}
vaultsToRemove.push(address(vaults[_index]));
// update group accounting if vault is part of a group
if (_index < globalVaultState.depositIndex) {
uint256 group = _index % globalVaultState.numVaultGroups;
uint256[] memory groups = new uint256[]();
groups[0] = group;
fundFlowController.updateOperatorVaultGroupAccounting(groups);
// if possiible, remove vault right away
if (vaults[_index].claimPeriodActive()) {
removeVault(vaultsToRemove.length - 1);
}
}
}

uint256 index;
for (uint256 i = 0; i < numVaults; ++i) {
if (address(vaults[i]) == vault) {
index = i;
break;
}
}
for (uint256 i = index; i < numVaults - 1; ++i) {
vaults[i] = vaults[i + 1];
}
vaults.pop();
token.safeTransfer(address(stakingPool), token.balanceOf(address(this)));
}

Impact

This could potentially let any actor to choose to remove a vault from operation, however it will not cause any loss of funds.
