Parse Dashboard Has a Cache Key Collision that Leaks Master Key to Read-Only Sessions
CVE-2026-27610GHSA-jhp4-jvq3-w5xr
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (parse-dashboard 9.0.0-alpha.8), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Impact 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. Patches The fix uses distinct cache keys for master key and read-only master key. Workarounds Avoid using function-typed master keys, or remove the agent configuration block from your dashboard configuration.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-27610 Advisory: Parse Dashboard Has a Cache Key Collision that Leaks Master Key to Read-Only Sessions IDs: CVE-2026-27610, GHSA-jhp4-jvq3-w5xr Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-27610 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 12:42 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: High (CVSS 7.0) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: parse-dashboard 9.0.0-alpha.8. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - npm parse-dashboard: affected >= 7.3.0-alpha.42, < 9.0.0-alpha.8; fixed in 9.0.0-alpha.8 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `npm ls parse-dashboard --all`: lists every installed copy and version, including transitive ones. Run in the project root after `npm ci`. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on parse-dashboard. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-jhp4-jvq3-w5xr (OSV record GHSA-jhp4-jvq3-w5xr lists affected ranges: npm parse-dashboard >=7.3.0-alpha.42 <9.0.0-alpha.8 (fixed)) - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-jhp4-jvq3-w5xr (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-jhp4-jvq3-w5xr lists affected ranges: npm parse-dashboard >=7.3.0-alpha.42 <9.0.0-alpha.8) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
