Improper privilege management in all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server allows users with authorized access to the management console with an editor role to escalate their privileges by making requests to the endpoint used for bootstrapping the instance. This vulnerability affected GitHub Enterprise Server version 3.8.0 and above and was fixed in version 3.8.12, 3.9.6, 3.10.3, and 3.11.0.

Weakness

The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
