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-7hv6-gv38-78wj 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 378,156 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

Description
Impact
The api interface for DataEase delete dashboard and delete system messages is vulnerable to IDOR.
The interface to delete the dashboard:
- Create two users: user1 and user2
- User1 creates a dashboard named pan1
- User2 creates a dashboard named pan2
- Both user1 and user2 share their dashboards with the demo user
- User1 wants to delete his dashboard. We hijack the request with burpsuite. The request will probably look like this: POST /api/share/removePanelShares/440efa7f-efd8-11ed-bec7-1144724bc08c HTTP/1.1. 440efa7f-efd8-11ed-bec7-1144724bc08c is the ID of pan1
- We replace this ID with the ID of pan2 and continue the execution (i.e. we delete the shares of others)
- Successfully remove the shared link

The interface to delete system messages:
- Our request to delete a message is shown below

- We can delete all messages by simply enumerating the message ID, regardless of whether the message belongs to the requester or not.
- The interface for marking read messages is also affected
Affected versions: <= 1.18.6
Patches

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for io.dataease:dataease-plugin-common, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update io.dataease:dataease-plugin-common to 1.18.7 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-7hv6-gv38-78wj 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-7hv6-gv38-78wj can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-7hv6-gv38-78wj. 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-7hv6-gv38-78wj in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds GHSA-7hv6-gv38-78wj across Maven dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
