GHSA-62ch-j6x7-722j
HIGHGHSA-62ch-j6x7-722j is a high-severity (CVSS 7.5) CWE-284 vulnerability in opensource-workshop/connect-cms. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-62ch-j6x7-722j is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
Connect CMS: Information Disclosure Due to Improper Authorization through the Page Content Retrieval Feature
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.
How urgent is this, really
GHSA-62ch-j6x7-722j plotted by exploitation likelihood (EPSS) against impact (CVSS). The shaded corner — EPSS 50%+ and CVSS 7.0+ — is where this CVE doesn't sit, though severity or exploitability alone can still warrant action.
Where this sits among everything scored
Of 356,453 CVEs with a current EPSS score, this one falls in the < 10% band (highlighted). Real counts from FIRST.org, not a sample — log-scaled since the landscape is heavily right-skewed.

Description
Security Advisory — Page Content Retrieval (Improper Authorization)
Summary
An improper authorization issue in the page content retrieval feature may allow retrieval of non-public information.
Affected Versions
- 1.x series: <= 1.41.0
- 2.x series: <= 2.41.0
Patched Versions
- 1.41.1
- 2.41.1
Description
In part of the page content retrieval feature, insufficient authorization checks could allow processing associated with non-public pages to be executed. If exploited, the contents and attachments of non-public pages may be obtained by a third party. Users affected by this vulnerability should update to a fixed version.
Solution
Update to the fixed version. For the 1.x series, update to 1.41.1 or later. For the 2.x series, update to 2.41.1 or later.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for opensource-workshop/connect-cms. 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 opensource-workshop/connect-cms to 1.41.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-62ch-j6x7-722j 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-62ch-j6x7-722j 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-62ch-j6x7-722j. 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-62ch-j6x7-722j in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-62ch-j6x7-722j across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
