GHSA-5626-pw9c-hmjr: octoprint (CVE-2024-23637)

Package	Ecosystem	Affected	Fixed in
octoprint	PyPI	<1.10.0rc1	1.10.0rc1

Machine-written summary

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

OctoPrint versions before 1.10.0rc1 (up to and including 1.9.3) let an admin change the password of other admin accounts, including their own, without re-entering the current password. An attacker who has hijacked an admin account could use this to lock actual admins out of the instance. Upgrade to 1.10.0rc1 or later; the source's only suggested workaround is to carefully vet who holds admin access.
