OpenProject is open-source, web-based project management software. Prior to version 17.3.0, a user with `manage_agendas`

OpenProject is open-source, web-based project management software.

No knowledge of the target project, meeting, or victim is required.

the attacker can blindly spray items into every meeting on the instance by iterating sequential section IDs. Version 17.3.0 patches the issue.
