A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

Impact

An attacker who has read plus create or update access to a collection can submit a request that includes a SQL injection targeting a specific field path shape and operators in Payload's SQLite and Postgres.

You are affected if:

  • You use @payloadcms/db-sqlite or @payloadcms/db-d1-sqlite.
  • You use @payloadcms/db-postgres or @payloadcms/db-vercel-postgres < 3.73.0.
  • A readable collection has a json field, or a blocks field with blocksAsJSON: true.
  • The attacker has read plus create or update access on it.

You are not affected if:

  • You have no json or blocksAsJSON fields. richText` is not affected.
  • You run a patched version.

Patches

The patched version sanitizes the query input to prevent injection.

Users should upgrade Payload packages to >= 3.90.0 or >= 4.0.0-canary.34.
