Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Control Bypass due to the security privileges configuration. An attacker can cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash of the server by exploiting high privilege access to the infrastructure where the server is executed. This is only exploitable if the attacker has high-level privileges and logon access to the infrastructure.
