SurrealDB before 1.5.4 Authentication Bypass via Database Switch

Published Jul 18, 2026

Modified 1 months ago

Details

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.
