Description
Snipe-IT before 8.7.0 gates the bulk asset restore endpoint on the assets.edit permission instead of assets.delete, allowing users without delete rights to restore soft-deleted assets. Attackers with edit permissions can post asset identifiers to the bulk restore endpoint to undo administrator deletions and bypass intended permission separation.
