CVE-2026-33429: Parseplatform Parse-Server

Medium severity, CVSS 5.3. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to versions 8.6.54 and 9.6.0-alpha.43, an attacker can subscribe to LiveQuery with a watch parameter targeting a protected field. Although the protected field value is properly stripped from event payloads, the presence or absence of update events reveals whether the protected field changed, creating a binary oracle. For boolean protected fields, the timing of change events is equivalent to knowing the field value. This issue has been patched in versions 8.6.54 and 9.6.0-alpha.43.

Affected products

• Parseplatform Parse-Server: before 8.6.54 (fixed in 8.6.54); from 9.0.0, before 9.6.0 (fixed in 9.6.0); version 9.6.0 only
