CVE-2026-101028 Details
Description
Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in ash-project ash allows an actor to infer data in related records they cannot read via Ash.count/2, Ash.exists/2 and Ash.aggregate/3. Ash.Actions.Aggregate.run/4 (lib/ash/actions/aggregate.ex) applied only the root resource's read policy before running the aggregate query. The read path also applies each related resource's read policy to filter and sort references that cross a relationship, directly (for example comments.body) or through an aggregate over one, but the aggregate path skipped that step. A caller whose filter or sort reaches these functions, for example through Ash.Query.filter_input/2, an ash_lua script, or an AshAi tool offering count or exists results, can test conditions against related rows hidden from them and recover their existence and attribute values one query at a time. Ash.read/2 and its page counts are not affected. This issue affects ash: from 2.6.0 before 3.34.6.
A vulnerability allowing incorrect authorization in the Ash framework has been identified. This issue arises because the aggregate actions `Ash.count/2`, `Ash.exists/2`, and `Ash.aggregate/3` do not apply the read policies of related resources to user-supplied filters that cross relationships. As a result, an actor can infer data from related records they are not authorized to access. The vulnerability is present in Ash versions 2.6.0 prior to 3.34.6.
The vulnerability has been fixed in Ash version 3.34.6. Users should update to this version to address the issue.
