Your authentik 'Helpdesk' Admin Might Be Superuser: CVE-2026-40172 (Not KEV, But Patch It)
A delegated authentik user manager can grant themselves admin-equivalent by assigning arbitrary groups, including is_superuser=True, via the user API. No KEV, no confirmed in-the-wild — but if you run delegated admins, check your SSO.
