Real-World Exposure
openstack-magnumReal-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
OpenStack Magnum passes OpenStack credentials into the Heat templates creating its instances. While these should just be used for retrieving the instances' SSL certificates, they allow full API access, though and can be used to perform any API operation the user is authorized to perform.

Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for openstack-magnum, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update openstack-magnum to 5.0.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-793v-r35j-9rp9 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Assume what was exposed is already known: rotate any credential, token or key that the affected component could return, restrict the endpoint to callers that genuinely need it, and strip sensitive fields from responses and error output at the boundary rather than relying on the client not to read them.
