GHSA-47h8-jmp3-9f28
CRITICALpyrage vulnerable to malicious plugin names, recipients, or identities causing arbitrary binary execution
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Blast Radius
pyrageReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects PyPI packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
pyrage uses the Rust age crate for its underlying operations, and age is vulnerable to GHSA-4fg7-vxc8-qx5w.
All details of GHSA-4fg7-vxc8-qx5w are relevant to pyrage for the versions specified in this advisory. See GHSA-4fg7-vxc8-qx5w for full details.
Versions of pyrage before 1.2.0 lack plugin support and are therefore not affected.
An equivalent issue was fixed in the reference Go implementation of age, see advisory GHSA-32gq-x56h-299c.
Thanks to ⬡-49016 for reporting this issue.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for pyrage. 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.
Fix
Update pyrage to 1.2.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-47h8-jmp3-9f28 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
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.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-47h8-jmp3-9f28 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-47h8-jmp3-9f28. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-47h8-jmp3-9f28 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-47h8-jmp3-9f28 across PyPI dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
