Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Payload, an npm package, is affected in versions from 3.0.0 before 3.90.0 and from 4.0.0-canary.0 before 4.0.0-canary.34. Token refresh and password reset responses could include fields that the requesting user should not be able to read, and this applies when an authentication collection has hidden or read-restricted fields. The source does not describe the attacker's prerequisites beyond that. Upgrade to 3.90.0 or 4.0.0-canary.34; the source says there is no complete workaround.
