Document-level access controls may be enforced on one query path but not applied to vector similarity, hybrid, or metadata-filtered queries, or metadata filters may be used to confirm attribute values of records the requester cannot retrieve. Records, metadata fields, or correlations across vector fields derived from different modalities are returned or inferred. Confidentiality of the stored records is lost.
Query Results Include Records the Requester is Not Authorized to Read

| ID | Title | Description |
|---|---|---|
| CCC.Vector.CP04 | Metadata Filtering | The service can apply structured filters on metadata fields alongside a vector similarity query to restrict the candidate set before or after ranking. |
| CCC.Vector.CP10 | Multi-modal Vector Support | The service can store more than one vector field per record, so that embeddings produced from different modalities (such as text and image) or different models are searchable together. |
| CCC.Vector.CP11 | Document-Level Access Control | The service may be configured to restrict which stored records and metadata fields a user can retrieve, so that query results are trimmed to the records the requester is authorized to see. |
