Which packages are affected by CVE-2023-40787?

CVE-2023-40787 affects the following packages: org.springblade:blade-core-tool (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix CVE-2023-40787?

No patched version of org.springblade:blade-core-tool has shipped for CVE-2023-40787 yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.

How do I detect CVE-2023-40787 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.springblade:blade-core-tool, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2023-40787 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Until you can upgrade, make sure every query built from user input uses parameterised statements or a prepared-statement API rather than string concatenation, and reduce the database account's privileges so an injected query cannot read or alter data beyond what the feature needs.

How does O3 Security protect against CVE-2023-40787?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2023-40787 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is CVE-2023-40787 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2023-40787 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-2023-40787?

CVE-2023-40787 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 18.2%, placing it in the 97th 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 warrants monitoring and prompt remediation.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2023-40787?
