🐘pocketmine/pocketmine-mp

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

Description

Impact

Due to a workaround applied in 1.13, an attacker may send a negative damage/meta value in a tool or armour item's NBT, which TypeConverter then blindly uses as if it was valid without being checked.

When this invalid metadata value reaches Durable->setDamage(), an exception is thrown because the metadata is not within the expected range for damage values.

This can be reproduced with either a too-large damage value, or a negative one.

Patches

Workarounds

In theory this can be checked by plugins using a custom TypeConverter, but this is likely to be very cumbersome.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency

  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update pocketmine/pocketmine-mp to 4.2.4 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-46c5-pfj8-fv65 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    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.
