An attacker with a valid admin profile:read access token can exploit this flaw to change the admin's password, gaining unrestricted access to the system. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access and potential compromise of sensitive data.

Original NVD Description

Ech0 before 4.4.3 protects the PUT /user endpoint with the profile:read scope, a read-only scope, but allows write operations including password changes. An attacker with an admin's profile:read access token can change the admin's password and login to obtain an unrestricted session token that bypasses all scope enforcement.
