Account activation via client-controlled status update
Published Jul 31, 2025 · Updated Jul 31, 2025
Broken access control in Magnussolution MagnusBilling 7.8.5.3 allows remote authenticated users to activate pending accounts. The user/save endpoint trusts a client-controlled status value during profile updates and does not enforce administrator approval. A newly registered account and an intercepted profile-update request are required, after which restricted system features become accessible.
