Improper authorization control for web services In @payloadcms/plugin-stripe

Description

Payload: Insufficient Access Control in Stripe REST Proxy

Impact

An authenticated user could perform unintended Stripe operations through the optional Stripe REST proxy.

You are affected if ALL of these are true:

    Your application uses @payloadcms/plugin-stripe.

    The optional Stripe REST proxy is enabled.

    An authenticated user can reach the proxy.

Deployments that do not enable the Stripe REST proxy are not affected.

Patches

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

Workarounds

Upgrading to a patched version is recommended.

If you cannot upgrade immediately, disable the Stripe REST proxy. If it must remain enabled, restrict access to trusted users and only the required Stripe operations.

Mitigation

Update Impact

Minimal update. May introduce new vulnerabilities or breaking changes.
