Hi there,

I was able to create a new account on my bitwarden server, even as the signups_allowed flag is set to false.

a) Is this known? or just me?
b) is there a way to look into the database if there exists any new/unknown accounts which are not mine?

Could you post a support string which you can generate via /admin/diagnostics please?
Also, via /admin you are able to see the users which are on your server.

Ok, looks like it shouldn't be possible.
We're you just able to create a new account right from the main page?
And what happens if you try it again? With a different email?

The point I noticed this, I was able to create a new account on the main page and I was also able to login into this account after that. Of course different email than my normale one.

Tried it now with a different email address:

The only change I made was to enable the admin panel. Dont know why it is now restricted as it should be.

I think because the previous time the container didn't restart. Which then didn't disabled it.
