Snipe-IT: Privilege Escalation via API Permissions Assignment

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.4.1, aAn authenticated user with only users.edit permission can escalate their own privileges to admin by sending a PATCH request to /api/v1/users/{id} with permissions[admin]=1.

This vulnerability is fixed in 8.4.1.
