BIT-parse-2026-35200 — Parse Server has a file upload Content-Type override via extension mismatch

2026-10-06T00:57:54.616820+00:00

Affected: Bitnami: parse

Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to 8.6.73 and 9.7.1, a file can be uploaded with a filename extension that passes the file extension allowlist (e.g., .txt) but with a Content-Type header that differs from the extension (e.g., text/html). The Content-Type is passed to the storage adapter without consistency validation. Storage adapters that store and serve the provided Content-Type (such as S3 or GCS) serve the file with the mismatched Content-Type. The default GridFS adapter is not affected because it derives Content-Type from the filename at serving time. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.6.73 and 9.7.1.

Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to 8.6.73 and 9.7.1-alpha.4, a file can be uploaded with a filename extension that passes the file extension allowlist (e.g., .txt) but with a Content-Type header that differs from the extension (e.g., text/html). The Content-Type is passed to the storage adapter without consistency validation. Storage adapters that store and serve the provided Content-Type (such as S3 or GCS) serve the file with the mismatched Content-Type.

GHSA-vr5f-2r24-w5hc — Parse Server: File upload Content-Type override via extension mismatch

2026-10-06T00:57:54.616926+00:00

Affected: npm: parse-server

### Impact

A file can be uploaded with a filename extension that passes the file extension allowlist (e.g., `.txt`) but with a `Content-Type` header that differs from the extension (e.g., `text/html`). The `Content-Type` is passed to the storage adapter without consistency validation. Storage adapters that store and serve the provided Content-Type (such as S3 or GCS) serve the file with the mismatched Content-Type. The default GridFS adapter is not affected because it derives Content-Type from the filename at serving time.

### Patches

The file upload now derives the Content-Type from the filename extension, overriding any user-provided Content-Type when the file has an extension.

### Workarounds

Configure the storage adapter or CDN to derive Content-Type from the filename extension instead of using the stored Content-Type.
