Payload is a free and open source headless content management system. In versions from 3.0.0 before 3.90.0 and canary versions before 4.0.0-canary.34, token refresh responses and password reset responses can independently return hidden or read-restricted fields that the requesting user cannot access. This issue is fixed in versions 3.90.0 and 4.0.0-canary.34.

GHSA-xgv3-crq2-6f69 — Payload: Token refresh and password reset responses may expose restricted user fields

Affected: npm: payload

## Impact

Token refresh and password reset responses could return fields that the requesting user did not have access to.

You are affected if:

- An authentication collection contains hidden or read-restricted fields.

## Patches

Authentication responses now apply field access and hidden-field filtering before returning user documents. Full user documents remain available server-side for access control.

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

Custom authentication strategies remain responsible for filtering user documents returned through custom responses.

## Workarounds

There is no complete workaround. Users should upgrade Payload packages to `>= 3.90.0` or `>= 4.0.0-canary.34`.
