## Overview

ZenML Server in the ZenML package before 0.46.7 for Python allows remote privilege escalation because the `/api/v1/users/{user_name_or_id}/activate` REST API endpoint allows access on the basis of a valid username along with a new password in the request body. These are also patched versions: 0.44.4, 0.43.1, and 0.42.2.

## Affected packages

- `zenml < 0.42.2`
- `zenml >= 0.43.0, < 0.43.1`
- `zenml >= 0.45.0, < 0.46.7`
- `zenml >= 0.44.0, < 0.44.4`

## Remediation

Upgrade to a patched release:

- `zenml 0.42.2`
- `zenml 0.43.1`
- `zenml 0.46.7`
- `zenml 0.44.4`
