Which packages are affected by GHSA-3hwm-922r-47hw?

GHSA-3hwm-922r-47hw affects the following packages: atomys.codes/stud42 (Go). Ecosystems affected: Go.

How do I fix GHSA-3hwm-922r-47hw?

Update atomys.codes/stud42 to 0.23.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-3hwm-922r-47hw is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-3hwm-922r-47hw in my Go dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for atomys.codes/stud42, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate GHSA-3hwm-922r-47hw 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-3hwm-922r-47hw actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-3hwm-922r-47hw 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.

Real-World Exposure

1 pkg affected

🐹atomys.codes/stud42

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Go packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

A security vulnerability has been identified in the GraphQL parser used by the API of s42.app. An attacker can overload the parser and cause the API pod to crash. With a bit of threading, the attacker can bring down the entire API, resulting in an unhealthy stream. This vulnerability can be exploited by sending a specially crafted request to the API with a large payload.

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service (DoS) attack on the s42.app API, resulting in unavailability of the API for legitimate users.
