DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in SecretSanta, which can be
exploited by malicious users to bypass some security restrictions.

The problem is that a new group can be created with the same name as
a previously created group, which causes the administrative user of
the new group to be incorrectly assigned to the previous group.

This can be exploited to gain administrative privileges for an
existing group by creating a new group with the same name.
