Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to versions 8.6.9 and 9.5.0-alpha.9, the file metadata endpoint (GET /files/:appId/metadata/:filename) does not enforce beforeFind / afterFind file triggers. When these triggers are used as access-control gates, the metadata endpoint bypasses them entirely, allowing unauthorized access to file metadata. This issue has been patched in versions 8.6.9 and 9.5.0-alpha.9.
AnalysisAI
Parse Server versions prior to 8.6.9 and 9.5.0-alpha.9 fail to enforce file access control triggers on the metadata endpoint, allowing unauthenticated attackers to retrieve sensitive file metadata that should be restricted. This bypass occurs because beforeFind and afterFind triggers are not invoked when accessing file metadata, circumventing security gates intended to protect file information. Affected organizations using Parse Server without the patched versions face unauthorized disclosure of file metadata.
Technical ContextAI
Classified as CWE-862 (Missing Authorization). Affects Parse-Server. Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to versions 8.6.9 and 9.5.0-alpha.9, the file metadata endpoint (GET /files/:appId/metadata/:filename) does not enforce beforeFind / afterFind file triggers. When these triggers are used as access-control gates, the metadata endpoint bypasses them entirely, allowing unauthorized access to file metadata. This issue has been patched in versions 8.6.9 and 9.5.0-alpha.9.
