{"id":"GHSA-4f9v-jpx9-mjvw","summary":"Duplicate Advisory: SurrealDB: Scraping a TABLE with no available PERMISSIONS to current auth level","details":"## Duplicate Advisory\n\nThis advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-98fx-66cf-fc7c. This link is maintained to preserve external references.\n\n## Original Description\nSurrealDB before 3.1.0 evaluates user-supplied WHERE clauses in SELECT statements (and SET/MERGE/CONTENT/PATCH clauses in UPDATE, UPSERT, INSERT ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE, and RELATE update-variant statements) against full record data before enforcing PERMISSIONS FOR SELECT WHERE restrictions. An authenticated user — including Record and Scope users — can exploit this ordering flaw to read the full contents of any table in the database they are authenticated against, bypassing table-level permission checks. Exfiltration is most direct when scripting functions are enabled (--allow-scripting), but is also possible via SurrealQL's THROW statement and timing-based side channels without scripting. The vulnerability is confined to the attacker's current database and does not cross namespace or database isolation boundaries.","modified":"2026-09-04T20:30:04.262912109Z","published":"2026-07-20T12:33:10Z","withdrawn":"2026-09-04T20:21:48Z","database_specific":{"github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-09-04T20:21:48Z","nvd_published_at":"2026-07-20T12:19:45Z","cwe_ids":["CWE-863"],"severity":"HIGH"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/surrealdb/surrealdb/security/advisories/GHSA-98fx-66cf-fc7c"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-63755"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/surrealdb-before-permission-bypass-via-where-clause"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"surrealdb","ecosystem":"crates.io","purl":"pkg:cargo/surrealdb"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"database_specific":{"last_known_affected_version_range":"\u003c 3.1.0","source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/07/GHSA-4f9v-jpx9-mjvw/GHSA-4f9v-jpx9-mjvw.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X"}]}
