In versions from 3.0.0 before 3.90.0 and canary versions before 4.0.0-canary.34, the duplicate operation copies values from a source document even when a field is hidden or its access.read or access.create rule rejects that value for the caller. The disableDuplicate setting does not prevent this access-control bypass. This issue is fixed in versions 3.90.0 and 4.0.0-canary.34.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.\n\n## Package advisory (CVE-2026-105851)\n\nAffected packages:\n\n- `payload > 3.0.0, < 3.90.0`\n- `payload > 4.0.0-canary.0, < 4.0.0-canary.34`\n\nPatched in:\n\n- `payload 3.90.0`\n- `payload 4.0.0-canary.34`\n\nSource: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-vc4h-q48j-5hcx","depth":"midnight","depthScore":51,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":51.2,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
