Affected versions:

- Apache CouchDB through 3.3.1
- IBM Cloudant through 8349

Description:

Design documents with matching document IDs, from databases on the same cluster, may share a mutable Javascript environment when using these design document functions:
* validate_doc_update

* list

* filter

* filter views (using view functions as filters)

* rewrite

* update



This doesn't affect map/reduce or search (Dreyfus) index functions.

Work Arounds:

Avoid using design documents from untrusted sources which may attempt to cache or store data in the Javascript environment.
