NewCVE-2026-109303 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade parse-server to version 9.10.1-alpha.13, 8.6.93 or higher.
Overview
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 Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key via the runCount function in src/RestQuery.js, where a relation count query fails to pass authentication context to the database find call, allowing an authenticated attacker to bypass protectedFields restrictions configured for identity-scoped groups. This exposes fields that should be hidden from the requesting user when a count query is issued over a relation.
