Due to this potential integrity breach of the entire trust environment, an immediate evaluation of the authorization hierarchies is imperative. Impact An attacker can create new administrator accounts despite token restrictions. This grants full access to all system data (tickets, customers, configuration) and allows the attacker to take complete co
