Affected packages
• npm directus: >= 9.23.0, < 10.6.0 → fixed in 10.6.0
Description
Summary
Directus >=9.23.0, .role matches any of []**". Which should fail. This instead passes in Directus =v9.23.0
PoC
{"role": {"_in": $CURRENT_USER.some_field}} field validation would pass if $CURRENT_USER.some_field is null.
Real scenario: Using https://github.com/u12206050/directus-extension-role-chooser with the specified versions of Directus (I tested on 10.0.0) allows users with access to this feature set their role to whatever role if they don't have any roles assigned (user_roles.role is left with the default value, null) despite the validation rule being
```yaml
validation:
role:
_in: $CURRENT_USER.user_roles.role
```
Latest version of Directus (v10.8.3 and above) handles the above validation rule correctly.
Impact
Permissions fail to open for setups relying on this filter and can lead to users getting access to things they're not supposed to.
