Upgrade CTFd to version 3.7.5 or later, where the issue has been fixed by the inclusion of pull request 2636. No other mitigation is required as the fix is available.

Description

A logic flaw in CTFd versions 3.7.0 through 3.7.4 allows authenticated users to change their team assignment after registration, enabling them to join a different team during an ongoing competition. This behavior violates the intended restriction that team assignment should only occur once at registration. The issue was fixed in version 3.7.5.
