Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
**Actions**, introduced in ZITADEL **1.42.0** on the API and **1.56.0** for Console, is a feature, where users with role `ORG_OWNER` are able to create Javascript Code, which is invoked by the system at certain points during the login.
**Actions**, for example, allow creating authorizations (user grants) on newly created users programmatically.
Due to a missing authorization check, **Actions** were able to grant authorizations for projects that belong to other organisations inside the same Instance. Granting authorizations via API and Console is not affected by this vulnerability.
### Patches
2.x versions are fixed on >= [2.2.0](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v2.2.0)
1.x versions are fixed on >= [1.87.1](https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/releases/tag/v1.87.1)
ZITADEL recommends upgrading to the latest versions available in due course.
