Summary
Rapyd Admin from 9.0.0 before 9.20.0 (zofe rapyd-admin) has an improper privilege management flaw (CWE-269) in its UsersEdit Livewire component. An authenticated user with the edit users permission, such as the shipped operator role, can assign the admin role to their own account, which lifts tenant scoping, bypasses per-record authorization, and enables impersonation.
