Technical details

A missing authorization check in YouTrack's issue visibility settings API allows authenticated users with read-only permissions to change issue visibility without proper privilege validation. The vulnerability requires network access and valid read-only credentials; no further user interaction is needed. An attacker gains the ability to alter issue visibility, potentially escalating access to sensitive issue metadata.
