Parse Dashboard Missing Authorization on Agent Endpoint

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 20.02.2026 Published: 25.02.2026 Updated: 25.02.2026

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) does not enforce authorization. Authenticated users scoped to specific apps can access any other app's agent endpoint by changing the app ID in the URL. Read-only users are given the full master key instead of the read-only master key and can supply write permissions in the request body to perform write and delete operations. Only dashboards with agent configuration enabled are affected. The fix in version 9.0.0-alpha.8 adds per-app authorization checks and restricts read-only users to the readOnlyMasterKey with write permissions stripped server-side. As a workaround, remove the agent configuration block from your dashboard configuration. Dashboards without an agent config are not affected.
