Can you clarify the scenario, please? What do you mean by "a user without 
access to request object"? Users don't have access to requests. A request 
either has a user associated or does not.

Regarding sessions, if the user doesn't already have a session—located via 
cookie—how will you know which user to perform actions for?

If you are writing custom views, the login_required decorator/mixin 
<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.decorators.login_required>
 is 
probably what you are seeking.
