Privileged app registration with no active owner
No enabled user or service principal owns this app registration, though its service principal is privileged.
Why it matters
Nobody is accountable for the app's permissions and credentials, so a leftover secret or an unneeded permission stays until someone notices it.
How GraphnAI finds it

Why there's no automatic fix
Assigning an owner to an app registration is done in Microsoft Entra.
How to fix it
Give this app an active owner who is accountable for it, or remove the permissions it holds.
