Description
Impact
Certain types of invalid files requests are not handled properly and can crash the server. If you are running multiple Parse Server instances in a cluster, the availability impact may be low; if you are running Parse Server as a single instance without redundancy, the availability impact may be high.
Patches
To prevent this, invalid requests are now properly handled.
Workarounds
None

Weakness
CWE-252: Unchecked Return Value
The product does not check the return value from a method or function, which can prevent it from detecting unexpected states and conditions.
How to prevent it
- Implementation: Check the results of all functions that return a value and verify that the value is expected.
- Implementation: For any pointers that could have been modified or provided from a function that can return NULL, check the pointer for NULL before use. When working with a multithreaded or otherwise asynchronous environment, ensure that proper locking APIs are used to lock before the check, and unlock when it has finished [REF-1484].
- Implementation: Ensure that you account for all possible return values from the function.
- Implementation: When designing a function, make sure you return a value or throw an exception in case of an error.
