Machine-written summary

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

An attacker with a regular user account who can edit their own profile can insert script that runs with administrator rights once an admin disables that account, allowing remote code execution. Upgrade to 14.10.21, 15.5.5, 15.10.6, or 16.0.0. No workaround is known besides upgrading.
