The vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to obtain usernames, first names, and last names of any other user on a CVAT instance.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect authorization in CVAT's organization context when accessing user information. An authenticated attacker can use organization membership or permission to create an organization to retrieve these details without interaction from the affected users.
