Attackers with an authenticated session can impersonate an unrelated user in a different database if a user record with an identical identifier exists, allowing unauthorized actions if permissions rely solely on the $auth parameter.","public_affected_ranges":["<= 1.5.3"]}],"null_published_at":"2026-11-02T10:00:37.203Z","source_updated_at":"2026-09-04T18:43:50.000Z","source_disclosed_at":"2026-07-18T15:31:48.000Z","is_synthetic_fixture":false,"null_last_reviewed_at":null,"public_change_summary":"First indexed by Null; source disclosure date is shown separately.","null_first_observed_at":"2026-11-02T02:20:52.377Z"}],"next_cursor":null,"snapshot_revision":"42594"}
