GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 has a CVSS score of 6.5/10, rated MEDIUM. Review your exposure and patch according to your risk tolerance.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24?

GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 affects the following packages: github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go), github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go), github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go), github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go). Ecosystems affected: Go.

How do I fix GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24?

Update github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server to 11.6.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 in my Go dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Cap what an attacker can consume: apply request size, rate and timeout limits in front of the affected component, and run it with memory and CPU limits so exhaustion degrades one worker rather than the whole service.

Is GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 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-37j2-3vv8-cf24?

GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.4%, placing it in the 34th 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-37j2-3vv8-cf24?

GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 is classified as Uncontrolled Resource Consumption (CWE-400). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-37j2-3vv8-cf24 was published on May 26, 2026 and was last updated on July 7, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.
