A privilege escalation issue allows team owners to obtain administrative rights or ownership of read-only shared projects. An attacker can achieve this by creating a bot, adding it to their team, and then deleting it via the bots endpoint. This process triggers the
ensureProjectAdminUser() function, which promotes read-only shares and locks out the actual owner.Recommendations
Update to version 2.7.1.
