SCA: security update for parse-server (GHSA-fcv6-fg5r-jm9q)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 414454

Description

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

- Parse Server is an open source backend server. In affected versions the Parse Cloud trigger `beforeFind`
is not invoked in certain conditions of `Parse.Query`. This can pose a vulnerability for deployments where
the `beforeFind` trigger is used as a security layer to modify the incoming query. The vulnerability has
been fixed by refactoring the internal query pipeline for a more concise code structure and implementing a
patch to ensure the `beforeFind` trigger is invoked. This fix was introduced in commit `be4c7e23c6` and
has been included in releases 6.2.2 and 5.5.5. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade
should make use of parse server's security layers to manage access levels with Class-Level Permissions and
Object-Level Access Control that should be used instead of custom security layers in Cloud Code triggers.
(CVE-2023-41058)
