Title
Parse Server's Cloud function dispatch crashes server via prototype chain traversal
Summary
Parse Server is an open source backend that can be deployed to any infrastructure that can run Node.js. Prior to 9.6.0-alpha.24 and 8.6.47, remote clients can crash the Parse Server process by calling a cloud function endpoint with a crafted function name that traverses the JavaScript prototype chain of a registered cloud function handler, causing a stack overflow. The fix in versions 9.6.0-alpha.24 and 8.6.47 restricts property lookups during cloud function name resolution to own properties only, preventing prototype chain traversal from stored function handlers. There is no known workaround.
