Description Andrej Nemec 2016-06-03 09:40:15 UTC
A number of API and UI actions/URLs for viewing and managing
organisations and locations are not limited to the orgs/locations
assigned directly to the user, instead they are only restricted by
permissions assigned to the user's roles. This allows users to view and
update other organisations/locations in the system that they should not
have access to.
