Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Nginx UI (github.com/0xJacky/Nginx-UI) versions before 1.9.10-0.20260703131214-23d1934099b0 are affected. An authenticated user can change the password of any other account, including the initial admin account, through the user management endpoint because it does not require the secure session (2FA) check that the self password change endpoint enforces. This allows full takeover of the admin account. Upgrade to 1.9.10-0.20260703131214-23d1934099b0 or later.
