SurrealDB 3.1.0 before 3.1.5 Field Permission Bypass via Traversal

Published Jul 20, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 5.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
SurrealDB versions 3.1.0 before 3.1.5 fail to enforce field-level SELECT permissions when records are accessed through graph-edge or back-reference traversals. Attackers with table-level SELECT access can read field values hidden by field-level permissions by materializing records through graph traversals instead of direct table scans.
