Summary

CVE-2026-34363 is a high-severity Race Condition (CWE-362) vulnerability in Parseplatform Parse-Server. Its CVSS base score is 8.2 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 30th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SC-39 (Process Isolation) and SC-4 (Information in Shared System Resources) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to versions 8.6.65 and 9.7.0-alpha.9, when multiple clients subscribe to the same class via LiveQuery, the event handlers process each subscriber…

concurrently using shared mutable objects. The sensitive data filter modifies these shared objects in-place, so when one subscriber's filter removes a protected field, subsequent subscribers may receive the already-filtered object. This can cause protected fields and authentication data to leak to clients that should not see them, or cause clients that should see the data to receive an incomplete object. Additionally, when an afterEvent Cloud Code trigger is registered, one subscriber's trigger modifications can leak to other subscribers through the same shared mutable state. Any Parse Server deployment using LiveQuery with protected fields or afterEvent triggers is affected when multiple clients subscribe to the same class. This issue has been patched in versions 8.6.65 and 9.7.0-alpha.9.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Maintaining separate execution domains for each process structurally eliminates unintended concurrent access to the same shared resources.

Preventing unintended information transfer through shared system resources directly addresses the improper concurrent modification that defines a race condition.

Secure SDLC practices directly require proper synchronization primitives and concurrency testing that prevent race conditions.

prevents

Secure SDLC mandates concurrency controls and synchronization primitives that directly prevent race conditions.

prevents

Application security requirements can specify thread-safety and locking rules, but do not prescribe implementation details.

prevents

Secure architecture principles require proper synchronization and resource isolation, addressing the root cause of CWE-362.

prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe concurrent access patterns and mandate atomic operations or locks.

finds

Security testing can detect race conditions, but does not prevent them at design or coding time.
