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-7hh3-3x64-v2g9 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 379,145 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.
Real-World Exposure
How broadly this vulnerability is actually deployed: weekly install volume shows current usage, and reverse-dependency count shows how many other packages break if it stays unpatched.
remultnpmDescription
Impact
If you used the apiPrefilter option of the @Entity decorator, by setting it to a function that returns a filter that prevents unauthorized access to data, an attacker who knows the id of an entity instance she is not authorized to access, can gain read, update and delete access to it.
Patches
The issue is fixed in version 0.20.6
Workarounds
Set the apiPrefilter option to a filter object instead of a function.
References
If you're using a minor version < 0.20 and require a patch, please create an issue.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for remult, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update remult to 0.20.6 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-7hh3-3x64-v2g9 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 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-7hh3-3x64-v2g9 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-7hh3-3x64-v2g9. 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-7hh3-3x64-v2g9 in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds GHSA-7hh3-3x64-v2g9 across npm dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
