Which packages are affected by GHSA-4vjr-crvh-383h?

GHSA-4vjr-crvh-383h affects the following packages: @napi-rs/image (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix GHSA-4vjr-crvh-383h?

Update @napi-rs/image to 1.7.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-4vjr-crvh-383h is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-4vjr-crvh-383h in my npm dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-4vjr-crvh-383h if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Stop feeding it untrusted input: reject or quarantine files and payloads from unverified sources until you can upgrade, restrict accepted formats to the ones you actually need, and run the parsing or decoding step in a least-privileged sandbox or short-lived worker so a crash or corrupted read cannot reach the rest of the process.

Is GHSA-4vjr-crvh-383h actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-4vjr-crvh-383h 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.
