Payload is a free and open source headless content management system. In versions from 3.40.0 before 3.88.0 and canary versions before 4.0.0-canary.27, an attacker can craft a redirect URL parameter that sends a guest user to an untrusted destination after the authentication flow completes. This issue is fixed in versions 3.88.0 and 4.0.0-canary.27.
Payload is a free and open source headless content management system. Prior to version 3.78.0 in @payloadcms/next, a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability existed in the admin panel. An authenticated user with write access to a collection could save content that, when viewed by another user, would execute in their browser. This issue has been patched in version 3.78.0.
User Session Fixation after Account Removal in PayloadCMS
A Session Fixation vulnerability existed in Payload's SQLite adapter due to identifier reuse during account creation. A malicious attacker could create a new account, save its JSON Web Token (JWT), and then delete the account, which did not invalidate the JWT. As a result, the next newly created user would receive the same identifier, allowing the attacker to reuse the JWT to authenticate and perform actions as that user.
This issue has been fixed in version 3.44.0 of Payload.
Lack of JWT Expiration after Log Out in PayloadCMS
Payload uses JSON Web Tokens (JWT) for authentication. After log out JWT is not invalidated, which allows an attacker who has stolen or intercepted token to freely reuse it until expiration date (which is by default set to 2 hours, but can be changed).
This issue has been fixed in version 3.44.0 of Payload.
