How to Fix CVE-2022-0624

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Parse path dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

parse-path fixed: 5.0.0 
npm install parse-path@5.0.0
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

npm ls parse-path

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2022-0624, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls parse-path

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Parse path in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 5.0.0), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls parse-path command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key, where the system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
