CVE-2024-29027Network attack vector

Server crash via unsanitized Cloud trigger names

Published Mar 19, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024

Improper input validation in Parse Server before 6.5.5 and 7.0.0-alpha.1 through 7.0.0-alpha.28 allows remote attackers to crash it. The getStore function splits attacker-controlled Cloud Function or Cloud Job names on dots and traverses trigger-store properties without first rejecting quote characters or invalid paths. No authentication or user interaction is required; the demonstrated consequence is a server crash, while code-execution reachability is undisclosed.
