@vendure/core is vulnerable to Improper Privilege Management
91
Critical Risk
This Affects:
@vendure/coreTL;DR
The Admin API updateAdministrator mutation allows an administrator with UpdateAdministrator permission to assign the SuperAdmin role and reset credentials for a target administrator without enforcing the target role boundary. A channel-scoped administrator can use this path to take over a SuperAdmin account and gain unrestricted control of the Vendure instance. The fix prevents non-SuperAdmin callers from updating SuperAdmin accounts or assigning the SuperAdmin role.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and permit non-SuperAdmin administrators to update administrator accounts.
