Snipe-IT is an IT asset/license management system. Prior to 8.6.1, the Importer API endpoint allows a user with CSV import capabilities and a valid API key to overwrite the created_by value of an import file, allowing unauthorized modification of import ownership metadata. This issue is fixed in version 8.6.1.
