Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for paddlepaddle, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Remediation status
No patched version of paddlepaddle has shipped for GHSA-2rp8-hff9-c5wr yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
Resolve every user-supplied path to its canonical form and reject anything that escapes the intended directory, and run the component under an account that has no read or write access outside the directory it legitimately serves.
