CVE-2026-34215: CWE-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in parse-community parse-server
Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to versions 8.6.63 and 9.7.0-alpha.7, the verify password endpoint returns unsanitized authentication data, including MFA TOTP secrets, recovery codes, and OAuth access tokens. An attacker who knows a user's password can extract the MFA secret to generate valid MFA codes, defeating multi-factor authentication protection. This issue has been patched in versions 8.6.63 and 9.7.0-alpha.7.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-34215 is a high-severity vulnerability (CVSS 8.2) in parse-server where the verify password endpoint returns unsanitized sensitive authentication data such as MFA TOTP secrets, recovery codes, and OAuth tokens. This exposure enables an attacker who knows a user's password to obtain MFA secrets and generate valid MFA codes, effectively bypassing multi-factor authentication. The vulnerability affects parse-server versions prior to 8.6.63 and versions from 9.0.0 up to but not including 9.7.0-alpha.7. The issue has been addressed and patched in versions 8.6.63 and 9.7.0-alpha.7.
Potential Impact
An attacker who knows a user's password can extract multi-factor authentication secrets, allowing them to generate valid MFA codes and bypass MFA protections. This compromises the security of user accounts by defeating an important layer of authentication, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive data or services protected by parse-server.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade parse-server to version 8.6.63 or later, or to 9.7.0-alpha.7 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched. No other mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory.
