Lifecycle Timeline

Keystone is a content management system for Node.js. Prior to version 6.5.0, {field}.isFilterable access control can be bypassed in update and delete mutations by adding additional unique filters. These filters can be used as an oracle to probe the existence or value of otherwise unreadable fields. Specifically, when a mutation includes a where clause with multiple unique filters (e.g. id and email), Keystone will attempt to match records even if filtering by the latter fields would normally be rejected by field.isFilterable or list.defaultIsFilterable. This can allow malicious actors to infer the presence of a particular field value when a filter is successful in returning a result. This affects any project relying on the default or dynamic isFilterable behavior (at the list or field level) to prevent external users from using the filtering of fields as a discovery mechanism. While this access control is respected during findMany operations, it was not completely enforced during update and delete mutations when accepting more than one unique where values in filters. This has no impact on projects using isFilterable: false or defaultIsFilterable: false for sensitive fields, or for those who have otherwise omitted filtering by these fields from their GraphQL schema. This issue has been patched in @keystone-6/core version 6.5.0. To mitigate this issue in older versions where patching is not a viable pathway, set isFilterable: false statically for relevant fields to prevent filtering by them earlier in the access control pipeline (that is, don't use functions); set {field}.graphql.omit.read: true for relevant fields, which implicitly removes filtering by these fields from the GraphQL schema; and/or deny update and delete operations for the relevant lists completely.
AnalysisAI
Keystone is a content management system for Node.js. Rated low severity (CVSS 3.1), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable. No vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Exposure of Sensitive Information (CWE-200), which allows attackers to access sensitive data that should not be disclosed.

RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Minimize information in error messages, implement proper access controls, encrypt sensitive data at rest and in transit.
