"Among other things, either a father's or a mother's consent is necessary"

Is it either/or?

If one parent has to sneak around to the priest with the baby because the other parent opposes, should the priest confer the sacrament?

(Honest question; no ulterior motives.)

Yes, I believe only one parent's consent is necessary. But I found nothing about that in the Catechism. Can anyone provide a reference?
