CVE-2026-63738 PUBLISHED

SurrealDB 3.1.0 before 3.1.5 Field Permission Bypass via Traversal

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 18.07.2026 Published: 20.07.2026 Updated: 20.07.2026

SurrealDB versions 3.1.0 before 3.1.5 fail to enforce field-level SELECT permissions when records are accessed through graph-edge or back-reference traversals. Attackers with table-level SELECT access can read field values hidden by field-level permissions by materializing records through graph traversals instead of direct table scans.
