CVE-2026-27610
Parse Dashboard Has a Cache Key Collision that Leaks Master Key to Read-Only Sessions
CVE-2026-27610 is a high vulnerability (CVSS 7.0) in Parseplatform Parse Dashboard, published February 25, 2026. No source lists public exploit code. EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.38%, the 32nd percentile. Fixed in parse-dashboard 9.0.0-alpha.8.
Parse Dashboard is a standalone dashboard for managing Parse Server apps. In versions 7.3.0-alpha.42 through 9.0.0-alpha.7, the ConfigKeyCache uses the same cache key for both master key and read-only master key when resolving function-typed keys. Under specific timing conditions, a read-only user can receive the cached full master key, or a regular user can receive the cached read-only master key. The fix in version 9.0.0-alpha.8 uses distinct cache keys for master key and read-only master key. As a workaround, avoid using function-typed master keys, or remove the agent configuration block from your dashboard configuration.
