Machine-written summary

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

Semaphore (github.com/semaphoreui/semaphore) versions before 0.0.0-20260705182501-bb2a4e1f08c8 are affected. A project member with the built-in manager role can create a custom project role with the slug "manager" and full permissions, which then gives that member owner-level permissions on the project. The attack needs only an authenticated manager account and one request, and it lets the attacker change project settings, manage members, or delete the project. Upgrade to 0.0.0-20260705182501-bb2a4e1f08c8 or later.
