How to fix?

Upgrade @apostrophecms/import-export to version 3.7.0 or higher.

Overview

@apostrophecms/import-export is an Import Export Documents for ApostropheCMS

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input due to insufficient validation of update-key values in the import functionality. An authenticated attacker with import access to a target content type can supply a MongoDB query operator instead of an exact identifying value in a crafted archive, causing the import to match and overwrite an unrelated existing document. Exploitation does not require knowing the document’s actual identifying value, but remains limited to documents the attacker has permission to edit.
