CVE-2024-58363 is a medium-severity flaw (CVSS 6.3) affecting surrealdb. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
SurrealDB before 1.5.4 fails to properly validate authentication when a scope user switches databases using the USE clause or use method. 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.
