{"id":"CVE-2025-46720","aliases":["EUVD-2025-13412","GHSA-hg9m-67mm-7pg3"],"status":"published","title":"Keystone has an unintended `isFilterable` bypass that can be used as an oracle to match hidden fields","description":"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.","severity":{"version":"3.1","score":3.1,"vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","level":"low","assessor":"cna","from":"cve"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-10","score":0.00287,"percentile":0.21429,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":true},"cwes":["CWE-200","CWE-203"],"published":"2025-05-05T18:51:34Z","modified":"2026-10-28T02:30:57Z","fixes":[{"ecosystem":"npm","package":"@keystone-6/core","fixed_in":["6.5.0"],"sources":["ghsa","osv"]}],"affected":[{"source":"ghsa","ecosystem":"npm","package":"@keystone-6/core","ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.4.0"},{"fixed":"6.5.0"}]}]},{"source":"osv","ecosystem":"npm","package":"@keystone-6/core","ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.5.0"}]}]}],"products":[{"vendor":"keystonejs","product":"keystone"},{"vendor":"openstack","product":"keystone"}],"references":[{"url":"https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone/security/advisories/GHSA-hg9m-67mm-7pg3","tags":["x_refsource_CONFIRM","Mitigation","Vendor Advisory","advisory","web"]},{"url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-46720","tags":["advisory"]},{"url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-hg9m-67mm-7pg3"},{"url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/46xxx/CVE-2025-46720.json","tags":["advisory"]},{"url":"https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone","tags":["package"]}],"sources":{"cve":[{"id":"CVE-2025-46720","title":"Keystone has an unintended `isFilterable` bypass that can be used as an oracle to match hidden fields","description":"Keystone is a content management system for Node.js.
