Description
The Grav api plugin (grav-plugin-api) before 1.0.8 fails to properly authorize API key generation and revocation: the plugin intercepts the apiKeyGenerate/apiKeyRevoke admin tasks before the account-management ACL runs and authorizes the caller on only the admin.login permission (the baseline permission held by every panel user). This allows any user with admin.login to mint a persistent API key bound to any account, and the forged key inherits the target account's API permissions. On installs where an API-enabled account holds broader permissions, this enables account impersonation and privilege escalation up to account takeover.
