How to fix?

Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.13, 5.2.4 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 Information Exposure because the LiveQueryController does not remove protected fields in classes, passing them to the client.

Workarounds:

Users can use Parse.Cloud.afterLiveQueryEvent to manually remove protected fields.
