By duplicating high-privilege documents, such as administrator accounts, standard users can inherit sensitive fields (e.g., role configurations or API keys), leading to privilege escalation.\n\n## TL;DR\nPayload CMS failed to enforce field-level access controls and the disableDuplicate configuration during document duplication, allowing standard users to duplicate administrator profiles and escalate their privileges.\n\n## Exploit Status: POC\n\n## Technical Details\n\n- **CWE ID**: CWE-284 / CWE-863\n- **Attack Vector**: Network (Unauthenticated or Low-Privileged Local Network/API Access)\n- **CVSS v4.0**: 9.3 (Critical)\n- **EPSS Score**: Not Available\n- **Impact**: Privilege Escalation / Unauthorized Data Access\n- **Exploit Status**: Conceptual / Proof-of-Concept\n- **CISA KEV Status**: Not Listed\n\n## Affected Systems\n\n- Payload CMS\n- **payload**: &amp;gt;= 3.0.0, &amp;lt; 3.90.0 (Fixed in: `3.90.0`)\n- **payload**: &amp;gt;= 4.0.0-canary.0, &amp;lt; 4.0.0-canary.34 (Fixed in: `4.0.0-canary.34`)\n\n## Mitigation\n\n- Upgrade Payload CMS to version 3.90.0 or higher (for 3.x installations) or 4.0.0-canary.34 or higher (for 4.x installations).\n- Explicitly set disableDuplicate: true in all authentication-enabled and high-privilege collection configurations.\n- Implement custom beforeChange or beforeValidate hooks to strip sensitive fields during duplication operations programmatically.\n\n**Remediation Steps:**\n1. Analyze the active Payload CMS version in package.json.\n2. Run npm install payload@3.90.0 or npm install payload@4.0.0-canary.34 depending on the track.\n3. Audit all collection configurations and append disableDuplicate: true to users and administrative schemas.\n4. Rebuild the application and deploy the patch to staging and production systems.\n5. Verify that POST requests to /api/users/:id/duplicate return a 400 or 404 response status.\n\n## References\n\n- [GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-vc4h-q48j-5hcx](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/security/advisories/GHSA-vc4h-q48j-5hcx)\n- [Payload CMS Commit 099ef12e26](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/commit/099ef12e2682f076aa8e8d0ccb790536b4e1027f)\n- [Payload CMS v3.90.0 Release Notes](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/releases/tag/v3.90.0)\n- [CVE-2026-105851 Record](https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-105851)\n\n\n---\n*Generated by [CVEReports](https://cvereports.com/reports/CVE-2026-105851) - Automated Vulnerability Intelligence*", "creation_timestamp": "2026-10-07T00:30:30.000000Z"}</description>
