Which packages are affected by CVE-2022-29153?

CVE-2022-29153 affects the following packages: github.com/hashicorp/consul (Go), github.com/hashicorp/consul (Go), github.com/hashicorp/consul (Go). Ecosystems affected: Go.

How do I fix CVE-2022-29153?

Update github.com/hashicorp/consul to 1.9.17 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2022-29153 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2022-29153 in my Go dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/hashicorp/consul, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2022-29153 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Restrict outbound requests from the affected component to an allowlist of hosts, block access to link-local and internal address ranges at the network layer, and require authentication on internal services so a forged request cannot reach them unauthenticated.

Is CVE-2022-29153 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2022-29153 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2022-29153?

CVE-2022-29153 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 8.7%, placing it in the 95th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2022-29153?

CVE-2022-29153 is classified as Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CWE-918). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

Is there exploit tooling available for CVE-2022-29153?

A Nuclei detection template exists for CVE-2022-29153, meaning automated scanners can fingerprint it. Public exploit tooling significantly increases real-world risk — prioritize patching and ensure detection coverage. Exploit tooling should only ever be used in isolated, authorized testing environments.

When was CVE-2022-29153 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2022-29153 was published on April 19, 2022 and was last updated on October 28, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.
