CVE-2025-64173: Apollo Router Affected by an Access Control Bypass on Polymorphic Types

November 6, 2025

A vulnerability in Apollo Router allowed for unauthenticated queries to access data that required additional access controls. Router incorrectly handled access control directives on interface types/fields and their implementing object types/fields, applying them to interface types/fields while ignoring directives on their implementing object types/fields when all implementations had the same requirements.
