Summary

Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.2, an authenticated non-admin user with users.view and users.edit but without users.delete can directly POST to /users/bulksave with delete_user=1 because BulkUsersController::destroy() authorizes only update, allowing the user to soft-delete another non-admin user. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.2.
