Description

Impact

It's possible for a user with only Script rights to enable or disable a user: this operation should be only doable for users with admin rights.

Patches

This problem has been patched in XWiki 13.10.7, 14.4.2 and 14.5RC1.

Workarounds

There is no workaround other than upgrading the wiki, but note that this only impacts users with Script rights: administrator should take care which users have such right.
