## Description

An authenticated Zabbix user (User role) with template/host write
permissions is able to create objects via the configuration.import API.
This can lead to confidentiality loss by creating unauthorized hosts. Note
that the User role is normally not sufficient to create and edit
templates/hosts even with write permissions.
