CVE-2026-64627: Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information in parse-community parse-server
Parse Server versions >= 9.0.0 before 9.10.0-alpha.4 and versions before 8.6.85 contain a schema disclosure vulnerability. When the GraphQL API is mounted with public introspection disabled (graphQLPublicIntrospection: false, the default), schema-derived 'Did you mean ...?' suggestions were still returned in GraphQL error messages produced during variable coercion, which were not covered by the introspection-hardening control (that only handled validation errors). An unauthenticated caller possessing only the public application id can iteratively recover hidden schema identifiers — including registered Cloud Code function names and Parse class and field names — by submitting queries or mutations whose variables contain near-miss enum values or input-object field names. This is a follow-up bypass of GHSA-8cph-rgr4-g5vj. The issue is fixed in 9.10.0-alpha.4 and 8.6.85.

Technical Summary
CVE-2026-64627 affects parse-community's parse-server. The vulnerability arises when the GraphQL API is mounted with public introspection disabled (graphQLPublicIntrospection: false), yet error messages generated during variable coercion still include 'Did you mean ...?' suggestions derived from the schema. These suggestions were not covered by the introspection-hardening control, which only handled validation errors. An unauthenticated attacker possessing only the public application ID can exploit this by submitting queries or mutations with near-miss enum values or input-object field names, thereby iteratively recovering hidden schema identifiers including registered Cloud Code function names and Parse class and field names. This vulnerability is a follow-up bypass of a previous advisory (GHSA-8cph-rgr4-g5vj). The issue is fixed in parse-server versions 9.10.0-alpha.4 and 8.6.85.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to disclose sensitive schema information that was intended to be hidden by disabling public introspection. This includes internal Cloud Code function names and class/field names, which could aid attackers in crafting more targeted attacks or understanding the internal application structure. The exposure is limited to schema identifiers and does not indicate direct data access or code execution. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9, reflecting a medium severity with network attack vector, no privileges required, no user interaction, and low impact on confidentiality.
Mitigation Recommendations
The vulnerability is fixed in parse-server versions 9.10.0-alpha.4 and 8.6.85. Users should upgrade to at least one of these versions to remediate the issue. Since no official remediation level or patch links are provided beyond this, upgrading to these fixed versions is the recommended action. Patch status is confirmed by the vendor advisory stating the fix is included in these versions.
