Description

Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to versions 8.6.56 and 9.6.0-alpha.45, Parse Server's LiveQuery component does not enforce the requestComplexity.queryDepth configuration setting when processing WebSocket subscription requests. An attacker can send a subscription with deeply nested logical operators, causing excessive recursion and CPU consumption that degrades or disrupts service availability. This issue has been patched in versions 8.6.56 and 9.6.0-alpha.45.
