CVE-2026-121413 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 2.3 (low) and affects parse-server; fixed in 9.10.6-alpha.4 and 8.6.112.

## Affected

- parse-community parse-server: from 9.0.0, fixed in 9.10.6-alpha.4
- parse-community parse-server: fixed in 8.6.112

## Description

Parse Server before 8.6.112 and 9.0.0 before 9.10.6-alpha.4 contains an authorization bypass in the session upgrade endpoint, which creates a new session for any valid session token without enforcing the _Session class create class-level permission. Attackers holding a user's session token can send an already revocable token to /upgradeToRevocableSession to obtain additional sessions with fresh expiration that persist after the original session is logged out.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on parse-community parse-server, upgrade to a fixed version (9.10.6-alpha.4, 8.6.112) per the references below.
