    Access Restriction Bypass

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Restriction Bypass via the beforeFind trigger in the Parse Cloud. An attacker can bypass security layers and modify incoming queries by exploiting certain conditions in Parse.Query. This is only exploitable if the beforeFind trigger is used as a security layer to modify the incoming query.

    How to fix Access Restriction Bypass?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 5.5.5, 6.2.2 or higher.

    >=1.0.0 <5.5.5>=6.0.0 <6.2.2

    Prototype Pollution

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution in the MongoDB BSON parser, which allows attackers to execute code on the affected system.

    How to fix Prototype Pollution?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 5.5.2, 6.2.1 or higher.

    <5.5.2>=6.0.0-alpha.1 <6.2.1
    • M
    Arbitrary File Upload

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary File Upload such that a malicious user could upload an HTML file to Parse Server via its public API. That HTML file would then be accessible at the internet domain at which Parse Server is hosted. The URL of the uploaded HTML could be shared for phishing attacks. The HTML page may seem legitimate because it is served under the internet domain where Parse Server is hosted, which may be the same as a company's official website domain.

    Note:

    An additional security issue arises when the Parse JavaScript SDK is used. The SDK stores sessions in the internet browser's local storage, which usually restricts data access depending on the internet domain. A malicious HTML file could contain a script that retrieves the user's session token from local storage and then share it with the attacker.

    How to fix Arbitrary File Upload?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 5.5.0, 6.2.0 or higher.

    <5.5.0>=6.0.0 <6.2.0
    • H
    Authentication Bypass

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass due to insufficient checks in the mechanism used to determine the client's IP address.

    How to fix Authentication Bypass?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 5.4.1 or higher.

    <5.4.1
    • H
    Prototype Pollution

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution such that a compromised Parse Server Cloud Code Webhook target endpoint allows an attacker to use prototype pollution to bypass the Parse Server requestKeywordDenylist option.

    How to fix Prototype Pollution?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.20, 5.3.3 or higher.

    <4.10.20>=5.0.0 <5.3.3
    • H
    Prototype Pollution

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution such that keywords that are specified in the Parse Server option requestKeywordDenylist can be injected via Cloud Code Webhooks or Triggers. This will result in the keyword being saved to the database, bypassing the requestKeywordDenylist option.

    How to fix Prototype Pollution?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.19, 5.3.2 or higher.

    <4.10.19>=5.0.0 <5.3.2
    • C
    Prototype Pollution

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution due to insufficient validation checks which can allow an attacker to trigger remote code execution.

    How to fix Prototype Pollution?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.18, 5.3.1 or higher.

    <4.10.18>=5.0.0 <5.3.1

    Authentication Bypass

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass where the session object properties can be updated by a foreign user if the object ID is known.

    How to fix Authentication Bypass?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.15, 5.2.6 or higher.

    <4.10.15>=5.0.0 <5.2.6
    • L
    Improper Authentication

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authentication when the server-side authentication adapter configuration appIds is set as a string instead of an array of strings. The vulnerability makes it possible to authenticate requests coming from a Facebook or Spotify app with a different app ID than the one specified in the appIds configuration.

    Note: This vulnerability affects environments with configurations that allow users to authenticate using the Parse Server authentication adapter for Facebook or Spotify.

    How to fix Improper Authentication?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.16, 5.2.7 or higher.

    <4.10.16>=5.0.0 <5.2.7
    • M
    Information Exposure

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure via internal fields (keys used internally by Parse Server, prefixed by _) and user-defined protected fields used as query constraints. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by brute force and enumerating the time until Parse Server returns a response object.

    How to fix Information Exposure?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.14, 5.2.5 or higher.

    <4.10.14>=5.0.0 <5.2.5
    • H
    Information Exposure

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure because the LiveQueryController does not remove protected fields in classes, passing them to the client.

    How to fix Information Exposure?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.13, 5.2.4 or higher.

    <4.10.13>=5.0.0 <5.2.4
    • H
    Denial of Service (DoS)

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) due to certain types of invalid files requests are not handled properly.

    Note: If you are running multiple Parse Server instances in a cluster, the availability impact may be low. If you are running Parse Server as a single instance without redundancy, the availability impact may be high.

    How to fix Denial of Service (DoS)?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.12, 5.2.3 or higher.

    <4.10.12>=5.0.0 <5.2.3
    • C
    Authentication Bypass

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass due to missing validation of certificates from Apple Game Center. Thus, authentication could potentially be bypassed by making a fake certificate accessible via certain Apple domains and providing the URL to that certificate in an authData object.

    How to fix Authentication Bypass?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.11, 5.2.2 or higher.

    <4.10.11>=5.0.0 <5.2.2
    • H
    Authentication Bypass

    parse-server is a version of the Parse backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass due to a weak validation of the Apple certificate URL in the Apple Game Center authentication adapter which allows attackers to make DoS attacks.

    How to fix Authentication Bypass?

    Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.10, 5.2.1 or higher.

    <4.10.10>=5.0.0 <5.2.1
