The issue falls under the OWASP Top 10 category A1: Broken Access Control and has a low severity rating. [1]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
The vulnerability can lead to unauthorized actions being executed by privileged users without their knowledge, which may compromise the integrity of the website. However, it has a low severity score (4.3) and is considered unlikely to be widely exploited. Users should update to version 5.25 or later to mitigate the risk. [1]
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
