Parse Dashboard is a standalone dashboard for managing Parse Server apps. In versions 7.3.0-alpha.42 through 9.0.0-alpha.7, the AI Agent API endpoint (POST `/apps/:appId/agent`) has multiple security vulnerabilities that, when chained, allow unauthenticated remote attackers to perform arbitrary read and write operations against any connected Parse Server database using the master key. The agent feature is opt-in; dashboards without an agent config are not affected. The fix in version 9.0.0-alpha.8 adds authentication, CSRF validation, and per-app authorization middleware to the agent endpoint. Read-only users are restricted to the `readOnlyMasterKey` with write permissions stripped server-side. A cache key collision between master key and read-only master key was also corrected. As a workaround, remove or comment out the agent configuration block from your Parse Dashboard configuration.

- GHSA-qwc3-h9mg-4582Parse Dashboard has incomplete authentication on AI Agent endpoint2026-02-25ghsa · osvUS
### Impact The AI Agent API endpoint (POST `/apps/:appId/agent`) lacks authentication. Unauthenticated remote attackers can send requests to the endpoint and perform arbitrary database operations against any connected Parse Server using the master key. ### Patches The fix adds authentication middleware to the agent endpoint. ### Workarounds Remove the `agent` configuration block from your dashboard configuration. Dashboards without an `agent` config are not affected. ### Resources - GitHub advisory: https://github.com/parse-community/parse-dashboard/security/advisories/GHSA-qwc3-h9mg-4582 - Fixed in: https://github.com/parse-community/parse-dashboard/releases/tag/9.0.0-alpha.8
