SurrealDB versions before 2.1.0 contain an uncaught exception vulnerability in the rand::time() function that panics when unwrap is called on a None result from timestamp_opt. Authorized clients can repeatedly invoke rand::time() to reliably trigger server panics and cause denial of service.
The CVSS severity warrants an early asset and exposure review.
