Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Privilege Management via the Share feature. An attacker can escalate privileges and access data or functionalities that are normally restricted by specifying an arbitrary role during the item sharing process. This is only exploitable if the instance uses the share feature and has specific roles hierarchy and fields that are not visible for certain roles.
