EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Real-World Exposure
cedipay-coreReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects npm packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
A vulnerability in CediPay allows attackers to bypass input validation in the transaction API.
Affected users: All deployments running versions prior to the patched release.
Risk: Exploitation could result in unauthorized transactions, exposure of sensitive financial data, and compromise of payment integrity.
Severity: High — potential financial loss and reputational damage.
Patches The issue has been fixed in version 1.2.3.
Users should upgrade to 1.2.3 or later immediately.
All versions earlier than 1.2.3 remain vulnerable.
Workarounds If upgrading is not immediately possible:
Restrict API access to trusted networks or IP ranges.
Enforce strict input validation at the application layer.
Monitor transaction logs for anomalies or suspicious activity.
These mitigations reduce exposure but do not fully eliminate the vulnerability.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for cedipay-core, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update cedipay-core to 1.2.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-26063 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2026-26063 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to CVE-2026-26063. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2026-26063 in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds CVE-2026-26063 across npm dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
