Overview
graphql is a plain-Ruby implementation of GraphQL.

An attacker can access unauthorized fields by triggering authorization failures that do not properly halt execution for fields using GraphQL::Schema::Resolver and its subclasses, allowing further operations to proceed despite failed authorization checks.
