Description
Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.0, POST /account/request/{itemType}/{itemId}/{cancel_by_admin?}/{requestingUser?} accepts cancel_by_admin as a URL path segment without sufficient authorization, allowing an authenticated user to supply a victim user ID and silently cancel that user’s pending asset requests. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.0.
