What it is

🚨 An authenticated user can turn the TCL Macro scripts into a weapon, escalating privileges to gain complete control of the application server! 🔥 Think of it like an employee who finds a way to edit the office calendar — they can reschedule meetings, kick people out of rooms, or even lock others out entirely. That's the level of chaos this vulnerability can unleash! If an attacker manages to exploit this vulnerability, they could gain full access to the server, altering data and configurations at will. This means they could wreak havoc, leading to significant downtime or leakage of sensitive information — an absolutely devastating scenario!
