How to Fix CVE-2022-39322
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected @keystone 6/core dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
npm install @keystone-6/core@2.3.1Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
npm ls @keystone-6/coreHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2022-39322, inspect your project dependencies using npm:
npm ls @keystone-6/coreAnalyze the terminal output to locate any version of @keystone 6/core in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.3.1), your application is affected.
Note: The npm ls @keystone-6/core command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

"details" : "#### Impact\n\n`@keystone-6/core@2.2.0 || 2.3.0` users who are using the `multiselect` field, and provided field-level access control - are vulnerable to their field-level access control not being used.\n\nList-level access control is **NOT** affected.\n\nField-level access control for fields other than `multiselect` are **NOT** affected.\n\nExample, **you are vulnerable if** you are using field-level access control on a `multiselect` like the following:\n```ts\nconst yourList = list({\n access: {\n // this is list-level access control, this is NOT impacted\n },\n fields: {\n yourFieldName: multiselect({\n // this is field-level access control, for multiselect fields\n // this is vulnerable\n access: {\n create: ({ session }) => session?.data.isAdmin,\n update: ({ session }) => session?.data.isAdmin,\n },\n options: [\n { value: 'apples', label: 'Apples' },\n { value: 'oranges', label: 'Oranges' },\n ],\n // ...\n }),\n // ...\n },\n // ...\n});\n```\n\n#### Mitigation\nPlease upgrade to `@keystone-6/core >= 2.3.1`, where this vulnerability has been closed.\n\n#### Workarounds\nIf for some reason you cannot upgrade your dependencies, you should stop using the `multiselect` field.\n\n#### Credits\nThanks to [Marek R](https://github.com/marekryb) for reporting and submitting the pull request to fix this problem.\n\nIf you have any questions around this security advisory, please don't hesitate to contact us at [security@keystonejs.com](mailto:security@keystonejs.com), or [open an issue on GitHub](https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone/issues/new/choose).\n\nIf you have a security flaw to report for any software in this repository, please see our [SECURITY policy](https://github.com/keystonejs/keystone/blob/main/SECURITY.md).",
