## Summary:
Hey team,
During the security assessment, I came across an endpoint - `GET /voyager/api/voyagerOrganizationDashEmailDomainMappings`, which is vulnerable to **privilege escalation**. A lower privileged user can abuse this to view the list of approved domains for email verification even though it can't be accessed directly from the UI.
## Vulnerable HTTP Request:
```
GET /voyager/api/voyagerOrganizationDashEmailDomainMappings?decorationId=com.linkedin.voyager.dash.deco.organization.FullOrganizationEmailDomainMapping-2&company=urn%3Ali%3Afsd_company%3A81541206&count=100&q=organization&start=0 HTTP/2

{F1732480}
* Intercept the vulnerable HTTP request.
* Change all the values of the cookie parameters & CSRF token to that of a lower privileged user (**"Analyst"** role). The response will disclose the approved domain for verification.
