SCA: security update for parse-server (GHSA-q3p6-g7c4-829c)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 439464

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js.
 Prior to versions 8.6.66 and 9.7.0-alpha.10, the GraphQL API endpoint does not respect the allowOrigin
 server option and unconditionally allows cross-origin requests from any website. This bypasses origin
 restrictions that operators configure to control which websites can interact with the Parse Server API.
 The REST API correctly enforces the configured allowOrigin restriction. This issue has been patched in
 versions 8.6.66 and 9.7.0-alpha.10. (CVE-2026-34373)

Solution

Update the parse-server library and its related packages to version 8.6.66 or later.
