Which packages are affected by GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9?

GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 affects the following packages: org.jvnet.hudson.plugins:hipchat (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9?

Update org.jvnet.hudson.plugins:hipchat to 2.2.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jvnet.hudson.plugins:hipchat, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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 does O3 Security protect against GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 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.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9?

GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 1.6%, placing it in the 75th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

When was GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-798p-53r7-mgw9 was published on May 13, 2022 and was last updated on December 3, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

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-798p-53r7-mgw9 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 376,715 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.
