{"id":"CVE-2023-30542","aliases":["GHSA-93hq-5wgc-jc82"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2023-30542","summary":"GovernorCompatibilityBravo may trim proposal calldata","details":"OpenZeppelin Contracts is a library for secure smart contract development. The proposal creation entrypoint (`propose`) in `GovernorCompatibilityBravo` allows the creation of proposals with a `signatures` array shorter than the `calldatas` array. This causes the additional elements of the latter to be ignored, and if the proposal succeeds the corresponding actions would eventually execute without any calldata. The `ProposalCreated` event correctly represents what will eventually execute, but the proposal parameters as queried through `getActions` appear to respect the original intended calldata. This issue has been patched in 4.8.3. As a workaround, ensure that all proposals that pass through governance have equal length `signatures` and `calldatas` parameters.","published":"2023-04-16T07:10:13.474Z","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:38.059736647Z","cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"@openzeppelin/contracts","fixedVersion":"4.8.3"},{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"@openzeppelin/contracts-upgradeable","fixedVersion":"4.8.3"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts/commit/8d633cb7d169f2f8595b273660b00b69e845c2fe","label":"OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts@8d633cb"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts/releases/tag/v4.8.3"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/30xxx/CVE-2023-30542.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts/security/advisories/GHSA-93hq-5wgc-jc82"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-30542"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts/commit/8d633cb7d169f2f8595b273660b00b69e845c2fe"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-12T03:51:38.059736647Z"}}
