This issue affects the function assert_user_is_admin_if_user_query_param_is_provided of the file st2api/st2api/controllers/v1/actionexecutions.py of the component NoOp RBAC backend. This manipulation of the argument User causes improper privilege management. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely.

Prior advisory CVE-2022-44009 was reported as a follow-up on the same sink, but this issue is distinct: it needs no Jinja RBAC und affects default install with RBAC disabled. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
