org.igniterealtime.openfire:xmppserver is vulnerable to Improper Privilege Management. The vulnerability is caused by the lack of proper validation of user privileges when a user account is deleted and subsequently recreated with the same username. This allows an attacker to exploit the system and automatically gain administrative privileges upon recreating a user account with the same name.
