How to fix?

Upgrade parse-server to version 4.10.14, 5.2.5 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 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.
