Security Vulnerabilities
SurrealDB before 3.1.5 contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the DEFINE ANALYZER mapper filter that allows database users with EDITOR or OWNER roles to read files accessible to the SurrealDB process. Attackers can specify arbitrary file paths in the mapper filter and retrieve file contents through query error messages when the SURREAL_FILE_ALLOWLIST is empty or not configured.

SurrealDB versions before 3.1.4 fail to properly enforce SELECT permissions on array elements (field.*) for record users, leaking denied array elements instead of hiding them. Attackers with record scope access can read array elements that element-level permissions should deny by exploiting incorrect index handling during permission filtering.

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.

SurrealDB versions before 3.1.0 contain a field-level SELECT permission bypass vulnerability in indexed COUNT fast paths. Attackers can execute COUNT queries on indexed fields with field-level SELECT restrictions to confirm or recover restricted field values through repeated guesses.

SurrealDB before 3.1.0 contains a capability bypass vulnerability in HTTP redirect handling that allows authenticated users to circumvent port-scoped --deny-net rules. Attackers can chain an HTTP redirect from an allowed hostname to a denied host:port combination, and the redirect is followed because the port information is dropped during redirect policy evaluation.

SurrealDB before 3.1.5 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the JWKS fetcher that follows HTTP redirects without re-validating redirect targets against network capabilities. Attackers with Owner role can configure a JWKS URL pointing to an allowlisted host that redirects to blocked internal addresses, bypassing network access controls.

SurrealDB versions before 3.2.0 contain a permissions bypass vulnerability where data-modifying statements within PERMISSIONS clauses execute with enforcement disabled. Attackers with permission to perform a guarded operation can write to tables they lack permission for by embedding CREATE, UPDATE, DELETE, or UPSERT statements in the PERMISSIONS clause, causing unintended writes and data corruption.

SurrealDB versions before 3.2.0 contain a denial of service vulnerability in the SurrealML header parser that allows authenticated Owner-role users to crash the server by uploading a malformed .surml file to the /ml/import endpoint. Attackers can supply non-numeric input-dimensions or other malformed header fields that trigger unchecked unwrap calls, causing a panic that aborts the entire server process and denies service to all databases.

SurrealDB versions before 3.2.0 fail to validate namespace and database scope in custom API routes, allowing authenticated users to invoke endpoints in different namespaces/databases. Attackers with valid credentials for any namespace/database can access custom API endpoints in other tenants by specifying the target scope in the URL path, reading sensitive data or triggering unintended operations.

SurrealDB before 3.2.0 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the JWKS fetcher that validates only the URL hostname string against allow-lists without checking resolved IP addresses. An Owner role attacker can point an access method at an allow-listed hostname resolving to private or loopback addresses, causing the server to issue GET requests to internal addresses that would be blocked by direct URL.
