Description
Payload’s duplicate operation copies field values from the source document even when a field is hidden, or its access.read or access.create rule would reject the value for that caller.
The disableDuplicate collection setting, enabled by default on auth collections, did not stop this.
Recommendation
Update the payload package to the latest compatible version. Followings are version details:
Affected version(s): **> 4.0.0-canary.0, < 4.0.0-canary.34 > 3.0.0, < 3.90.0** Patched version(s): **4.0.0-canary.34 3.90.0**
