CVE-2025-68150
EPSS 0.08%Parse Server is vulnerable to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) via Instagram OAuth Adapter
Published: 12/16/2025Modified: 2/3/2026
Description
## Impact The Instagram authentication adapter allows clients to specify a custom API URL via the `apiURL` parameter in `authData`. This enables SSRF attacks and possibly authentication bypass if malicious endpoints return fake responses to validate unauthorized users. ## Patches Fixed by hardcoding the Instagram Graph API URL `https://graph.instagram.com` and ignoring client-provided `apiURL` values. ## Workarounds None.
