Which packages are affected by CVE-2026-8782?

CVE-2026-8782 affects the following packages: github.com/omec-project/amf (Go). Ecosystems affected: Go.

How do I fix CVE-2026-8782?

Update github.com/omec-project/amf to 2.2.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-8782 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2026-8782 in my Go dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate CVE-2026-8782 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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.

Is CVE-2026-8782 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2026-8782 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-2026-8782?

CVE-2026-8782 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.5%, placing it in the 43th 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-2026-8782?

CVE-2026-8782 is classified as CWE-404 (CWE-404), NULL Pointer Dereference (CWE-476). These weakness types describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.
