Shopware is an open commerce platform. Prior to 6.6.10.18 and 6.7.10.1, UserController::upsertUser() in src/Core/Framework/Api/Controller/UserController.php writes raw user data in SYSTEM_SCOPE without filtering the admin field, so a non-admin API user with user:create or user:update ACL permission can set admin: true on new or existing users; IntegrationController::upsertIntegration() contains an isAdmin() check for the same field, but UserController was missing this check. This issue is fixed in versions 6.6.10.18 and 6.7.10.1.

GHSA-v39m-97p8-gqg7 — Shopware: Privilege escalation: non-admin user with user:create ACL can create admin accounts

Affected: Packagist: shopware/platform, Packagist: shopware/core

`UserController::upsertUser()` writes user data in `SYSTEM_SCOPE` and does not filter the `admin` field. A non-admin API user with `user:create` or `user:update` ACL permission can set `admin: true` on new or existing users, escalating to full admin access.

## The Problem

In `src/Core/Framework/Api/Controller/UserController.php`, line 210-234:

```php public function upsertUser(?string $userId, Request $request, Context $context, ResponseFactoryInterface $factory): Response { $data = $request->request->all(); // raw request data, no field filtering // ... $events = $context->scope(Context::SYSTEM_SCOPE, fn (Context $context) => $this->userRepository->upsert([$data], $context) ); } ```

`SYSTEM_SCOPE` bypasses `AclWriteValidator` entirely (line 52 of `AclWriteValidator::preValidate()` returns early for `SYSTEM_SCOPE`). The `admin` boolean field is accepted without restriction.

Compare with `IntegrationController::upsertIntegration()` in the same codebase, which correctly checks:

```php if ((!$source instanceof AdminApiSource) || (!$source->isAdmin() && isset($data['admin'])) ) { throw new PermissionDeniedException(); } ```

`UserController` is missing this exact check.

## Impact

Any API user with the low-privilege `user:create` permission can create accounts with full admin access, or with `user:update` can promote any existing user to admin. This is a direct privilege escalation.

## Suggested Fix

Add the same `isAdmin()` check from…
