Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to disclose potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in the users endpoint controller when handling requests to the admin API. A remote user can access the exposed apiKey field to disclose potentially sensitive information.

This only has impact if the project uses that field for its own purposes, as the core product does not use it for authentication.
