Summary

Duplicate Advisory: SurrealDB vulnerable to Improper Authentication when Changing Databases as Scope User

Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-gh9f-6xm2-c4j2. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

SurrealDB before 1.5.4 fails to properly validate authentication when a scope user switches databases using the USE clause or use method. Attackers with an authenticated session can impersonate an unrelated user in a different database if a user record with an identical identifier exists, allowing unauthorized actions if permissions rely solely on the $auth parameter.
