Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization due to insufficient verification of the membership status in the organization invite process. An attacker can delete all organization ciphers and attachments by sending a request to the /api/ciphers/purge endpoint after accepting an owner invite but before being confirmed by an existing owner.
