Impact An authenticated user limited to one tenant could create a record in another tenant. This requires the multi-tenant plugin with at least one tenant-enabled collection.

Reads and direct edits to an existing target-tenant document were not bypassed.

You are affected if: - You are using @payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant

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

Workarounds You can add access control with accessResultOverride on the multi-tenant collection config to ensure a user has access to the tenant before creating.

Impact

When using the default tenant array field access, an authenticated user could assign themselves to other tenants.

You are affected if:

- You are using @payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant

If you configure the tenants arrayFieldAccess.create/update functions, a secured replacement membership field, you are not affected by this specific default behavior.

Patches

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

Workarounds

Configure tenants arrayFieldAccess.create and tenants arrayFieldAccess.update so only trusted users authorized for all tenants can modify memberships.
