Summary
ELADMIN (eladmin-mp) up to 2.7 contains an improper access control flaw in its role management module, tracked as CWE-284. The PUT /api/roles/menu endpoint checks only the target role's level and does not validate the granted menu set or stop a caller from modifying its own role. A logged-in non-admin user holding the delegated roles:edit permission can assign arbitrary menu ids to its own role.

Description from the CNA
ELADMIN (eladmin-mp) up to 2.7 contains an improper access control vulnerability in the role management module. The endpoint PUT /api/roles/menu (RoleController.updateRoleMenu) authorizes the request only by comparing the target role's level with the caller's minimum level. The application neither validates the granted menu set nor prevents a caller from modifying its own role. A logged-in non-admin user whose role holds the delegated `roles:edit` permission can submit its own role id together with an arbitrary list of menu ids.
