Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Snipe-IT versions prior to 8.6.0
Description
An authenticated user with
users.create permission can assign administrative privileges to a new account. This occurs because the store() function in app/Http/Controllers/Users/UsersController.php strips superuser permissions but fails to strip admin permissions during user creation. Consequently, users with limited permissions, such as HR staff or department leads, can create accounts with full administrative access.Recommendations
Update to version 8.6.0.
