SurrealDB before 3.1.4 Array Element Permission Bypass

Published Jul 20, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 7.1 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
SurrealDB versions before 3.1.4 fail to properly enforce SELECT permissions on array elements (field.*) for record users, leaking denied array elements instead of hiding them. Attackers with record scope access can read array elements that element-level permissions should deny by exploiting incorrect index handling during permission filtering.
