CVE-2026-34363 — Parse Server: LiveQuery protected field leak via shared mutable state across concurrent subscribers
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.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- EPSS 0.4% (30-day exploitation probability)+5
- Technical severity (medium)+3
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Parse-community Parse-server, Parseplatform Parse-server).
- Apply the fixed version or the patch documented under Remediation.
- Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (logic error), errors and authentication anomalies.

What should defenders know first?
CVE-2026-34363 is "Parse Server: LiveQuery protected field leak via shared mutable state across concurrent subscribers", rated Medium. It affects Parse-server (Parse-community); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 5.3 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.40% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
