Facebook API Getting Friends of a friend

Good day, we are building an app that NEEDS to have information of user's friends' friends. For example: John logs into the app and he has 100 friends, each of those 100 friends also has 100 friends that equals to 10,000 people, application needs to get info like profile picture and basic info of those 10,000 people. We know that it was possible in the old API of Facebook, what happened now? If the current API doesn't have this function can we get exclusive access to this particular function for our servers only?

No, you can only access (non public) data about your app's users and their friends (subject to their privacy settings) - there's no permission which grants access to the friends of friends or their private data.
