An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-30938 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- parse-server (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 8.6.12\n- parse-server (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 8.6.12\n- parse-server (npm): affected from 9.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 9.5.1-alpha.1\n- parse-server (npm): affected from 9.0.0-alpha.1; fixed in 9.5.1-alpha.1\n- parse (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 8.6.12, 9.5.1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-30938/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-30938/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-30938","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-30938/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-30938","record":{"aliases":["BIT-parse-2026-30938","GHSA-q342-9w2p-57fp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Parse Server backend","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass the default requestKeywordDenylist security control in Parse Server by placing nested objects before prohibited keywords, allowing restricted data submission.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"parse-server","vendor":"parseplatform"}],"cvss":{"score":6.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-693","name":"Protection Mechanism Failure"}],"description":"Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to 8.6.12 and 9.5.1-alpha.1, the requestKeywordDenylist security control can be bypassed by placing any nested object or array before a prohibited keyword in the request payload. This is caused by a logic bug that stops scanning sibling keys after encountering the first nested value. Any custom requestKeywordDenylist entries configured by the developer are equally by-passable using the same technique. All Parse Server deployments are affected. The requestKeywordDenylist is enabled by default. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.6.12 and 9.5.1-alpha.1. Use a Cloud Code beforeSave trigger to validate incoming data for prohibited keywords across all classes.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Parse Server has denylist `requestKeywordDenylist` keyword scan bypass through nested object placement","id":"CVE-2026-30938","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":"parseplatform:parse-server","products":["parseplatform:parse-server"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":5,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Parse Server has Denial of Service (DoS) and Cloud Function Dispatch Bypass via Prototype Chain Resolution","id":"CVE-2026-30939"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["8.6.12","9.5.1"],"introduced":["0","9.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"parse","purl":"pkg:bitnami/parse","source":"BIT-parse-2026-30938"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["8.6.12"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"parse-server","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-q342-9w2p-57fp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["8.6.12"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"parse-server","purl":"pkg:npm/parse-server","source":"GHSA-q342-9w2p-57fp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["9.5.1-alpha.1"],"introduced":["9.0.0-alpha.1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"parse-server","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-q342-9w2p-57fp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["9.5.1-alpha.1"],"introduced":["9.0.0-alpha.1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"parse-server","purl":"pkg:npm/parse-server","source":"GHSA-q342-9w2p-57fp"}],"prev":{"headline":"ImageMagick has a heap buffer overflow in WriteXWDImage due to CARD32 arithmetic overflow in bytes_per_line calculation","id":"CVE-2026-30937"},"products":["parse-server"],"published":"2026-03-10","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Parse Server role escalation and CLP bypass via direct `_Join` table write","id":"CVE-2026-30966","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Parse Server literalizeRegexPart SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2024-27298","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-01"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command Injection in Parse server","id":"CVE-2022-24760","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-11"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Parse Server session token exfiltration via `redirectClassNameForKey` query parameter","id":"CVE-2026-30965","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Parse Server vulnerable to remote code execution via MongoDB BSON parser through prototype pollution","id":"CVE-2023-36475","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Parse Server vulnerable to Remote Code Execution via prototype pollution in MongoDB BSON parser","id":"CVE-2022-39396","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Parse Server: Account takeover via operator injection in authentication data identifier","id":"CVE-2026-32248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-12"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-03-10","vendors":["parse-community"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass the default requestKeywordDenylist security control in Parse Server by placing nested objects before prohibited keywords, allowing restricted data submission.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-30938/"}
