A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

Frappe ERPNext before 15.111.0 and 16.x before 16.22.0 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in a record-creation endpoint that takes the record type from the request and inserts the record with permission checks disabled. Any authenticated user, including one holding no operational role, can supply a privileged record type to create privileged accounts and take full control of the site.
