Which packages are affected by GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2?

GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2 affects the following packages: net.sf.robocode:robocode.battle (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2?

Update net.sf.robocode:robocode.battle to 1.9.5.6 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for net.sf.robocode:robocode.battle. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.

How do I mitigate GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2 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.

How does O3 Security protect against GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2 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 GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2?

GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.3%, placing it in the 19th 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 GHSA-2mxr-rc97-xrj2?

Description

An insecure temporary file creation vulnerability exists in the AutoExtract component of Robocode version 1.9.3.6. The createTempFile method fails to securely create temporary files, allowing attackers to exploit race conditions and potentially execute arbitrary code or overwrite critical files. This vulnerability can be exploited by manipulating the temporary file creation process, leading to potential unauthorized actions.
