andrewborell edited a comment on issue #1479: _all_docs?key returns all documents when the value is not string. URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/1479#issuecomment-498330929 I just observed this behavior in the same version with a POST request by dumping an unexpected key in the JSON body. The response returns every record in the database!!! I'm not sure what is more insane: This issue hasnt received any attention, or that it exists in the first place. **WHEN A QUERY IS MADE WITH AN INVALID SELECTOR OR FILTERING PARAMS THE REQUEST SHOULD GET DROPPED WITH A 400 BAD REQUEST MESSAGE.** It is one thing if the values do not exist but when the keys are unexpected and the request returns the entire database, that is a MAJOR problem. Given the severity of this issue I am very concerned that no one has responded to this matter in almost a year. Should we be abandoning couchdb for business purposes or development is silently addressing the issue? I cannot think of a practical application where this issue would not be a major concern.
