Payload: Token refresh and password reset responses may expose restricted user fields

  • Disclosed: 06.10.2026
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 10:22

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.
