Title:
  Session key not checked in admin/users/addtoinstitution.php

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Released
Status in Mahara 1.3 series:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The addtoinstitution.php script, for adding users to institutions,
  doesn't check the user session key, & could be used to trick an admin
  into granting institution membership.

  Easiest fix is probably to remove the script and move its contents
  into a pieform submit function.  The script is linked to from the
  admin user search page when viewed by an institutional admin for users
  who have requested institution membership.
