ANALYZED


This CVE record has been analyzed and enriched by NVDAPI.com as an independent party.

Description

SurrealDB before 3.1.5 fail to apply field-level SELECT permissions to ORDER BY clauses, allowing authenticated users to leak the relative ordering of restricted field values. Attackers can issue ORDER BY queries on indexed restricted fields to recover the hidden values' sort order across records, even though the field itself returns null as intended.

CPE

Remediation

  • Upgrade: 3.1.5moderate efforthttps://github.com/surrealdb/surrealdb/releases/tag/v3.1.5
  • Workaround:low effort

    Force the legacy executor with `SURREAL_PLANNER_STRATEGY=compute-only`; the sort then runs after redaction, so no ordering leaks.

  • Workaround:low effort

    Do not place an index on a field whose values are hidden by a field-level SELECT permission; without the index the leak does not occur.

  • Workaround:low effort

    Do not rely on field-level SELECT permissions to hide values on indexed fields from record users; restrict at the table level instead.

  • Workaround:low effort

    Use namespace/database isolation as the primary trust boundary where feasible.
