CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability in the ash-project allows attackers to manipulate data queries by submitting improperly formatted input, enabling them to forge relationships to records they should not access and potentially recover sensitive lookup values. This could lead to unauthorized data exposure, although existing authorization policies remain intact. Organizations using affected versions of the ash-project (from 1.52.0-rc.11 to before 3.31.1) should prioritize patching this vulnerability to mitigate the risk of data leakage.

Original NVD Description
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Data Query Logic vulnerability in ash-project ash allows an attacker to forge a relationship to a record they cannot name, and to recover the secret value used to look it up. When manage_relationship is used with on_lookup: :relate on a belongs_to relationship, the client-supplied lookup value is passed to Ash.Query.filter/2 without being cast to the attribute type. A nested map submitted where a scalar is expected is therefore interpreted as a filter predicate rather than a literal, so a lookup for a specific record becomes a query for any record matching a condition. The same path omits Ash.Query.limit(1), leaving Ash.read_one/2 able to distinguish no match from one match from several, which turns comparison predicates into an oracle for the lookup value. Authorization is unaffected; the destination read policy still applies. This issue affects ash: from 1.52.0-rc.11 before 3.31.1.
