Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote user to create API tokens for their own account despite revoked API-token permissions.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect authorization in POST /oauth/personal-access-tokens when handling session-authenticated requests. A remote user can send a crafted POST request to create API tokens for their own account despite revoked API-token permissions.
Exploitation requires a valid web session and a CSRF token readable from that session. The issued token follows existing per-endpoint policies and does not grant additional privileges beyond the user's current permission level.
