BIT-parse-2026-47248 — Parse Server: GraphQL "Did you mean" validation suggestions disclose schema to unauthenticated callers

Affected: Bitnami: parse

Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to versions 8.6.78 and 9.9.1, Parse Server's GraphQL endpoint discloses schema metadata to unauthenticated callers through Did you mean ...? suggestions embedded in GraphQL validation-error messages. An unauthenticated caller who knows only the public application id can iteratively send malformed queries to reconstruct class names, field names, argument names, mutation names, and input-object fields. This issue has been patched in versions 8.6.78 and 9.9.1.

GHSA-8cph-rgr4-g5vj — Parse Server's GraphQL "Did you mean ...?" validation suggestions disclose schema to unauthenticated callers

Affected: npm: parse-server

### Impact

Parse Server's GraphQL endpoint discloses schema metadata to unauthenticated callers through `Did you mean ...?` suggestions embedded in GraphQL validation-error messages. An unauthenticated caller who knows only the public application id can iteratively send malformed queries to reconstruct class names, field names, argument names, mutation names, and input-object fields. This bypasses the `IntrospectionControlPlugin` enforced when `graphQLPublicIntrospection: false` (the default) and defeats the schema-hiding goal of prior advisories GHSA-48q3-prgv-gm4w and GHSA-q5q9-2rhp-33qw. Schema disclosure aids reconnaissance for downstream authorization probing but does not by itself leak object data or authentication material.

### Patches

A new `SchemaSuggestionsControlPlugin` Apollo plugin strips the `Did you mean ...?` suffix from GraphQL validation-error messages during `validationDidStart`, which runs before any introspection gate. The plugin applies only when `graphQLPublicIntrospection: false` and the caller is not a master-key or maintenance-key holder, matching the trust model of the existing `IntrospectionControlPlugin`.

### Workarounds

No code workaround is available short of disabling the GraphQL API (`mountGraphQL: false`). Operators who require disclosure-resistant validation errors should upgrade to a patched release.
