CVE-2026-63741 PUBLISHED

SurrealDB before 3.1.0 Authentication Bypass via USE statement

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

SurrealDB versions before 3.1.0 fail to validate DEFINE NAMESPACE or DEFINE DATABASE permissions when processing USE NS and USE DB statements. Unauthenticated attackers can create arbitrary namespaces and databases by issuing USE commands, bypassing authorization checks in the RPC use method and SurrealQL executor.
