Description
Directus is a real-time API and App dashboard for managing SQL database content. An observable difference in error messaging was found in the Directus REST API in versions of Directus prior to version 11.13.0. The `/items/{collection}` API returns different error messages for two cases: when a user tries to access an existing collection which they are not authorized to access, and when user tries to access a non-existing collection. The two differing error messages leak the existence of collections to users which are not authorized to access these collections. Version 11.13.0 fixes the issue.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability in Directus versions prior to 11.13.0 involves the REST API returning different error messages when a user tries to access an existing collection they are not authorized to access versus a non-existing collection. This difference in error messages allows unauthorized users to determine whether a collection exists, leaking information about the database structure.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

The vulnerability can impact you by leaking information about the existence of collections in the database to unauthorized users. This information disclosure could aid attackers in mapping the database structure, potentially facilitating further attacks or unauthorized data access.


What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?

Upgrade Directus to version 11.13.0 or later, as this version fixes the issue with error message differences that leak collection existence information.
