CVE-2026-30965Network attack vector

Account takeover via redirected query authorization bypass

Published Mar 10, 2026 · Updated Mar 10, 2026

Incorrect authorization in Parse Server before 8.6.21 and 9.0.0 through 9.5.2-alpha.7 allows remote attackers to steal session tokens. Queries using redirectClassNameForKey change the target class without reapplying the authorization checks that protect direct queries. Exploitation requires permission to create or update an object with a new relation field; a stolen token grants control of the victim's account.
