GHSA-7pc3-pr3q-58vg is a high-severity (CVSS 7.8) OS Command Injection vulnerability in sagemaker. A fix is available for sagemaker — see the affected versions and patch details below.
sagemaker-python-sdk Command Injection vulnerability
Exploitation Status
No confirmed exploitation observed yet
- A successful exploit gives an attacker total control of the affected component, not partial access.
- CISA’s own triage has not observed active exploitation or public proof-of-concept code for this CVE as of its last assessment.

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-7pc3-pr3q-58vg 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 377,166 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
Impact
The capture_dependencies function in sagemaker.serve.save_retrive.version_1_0_0.save.utils module before version 2.214.3 allows for potentially unsafe Operating System (OS) Command Injection if inappropriate command is passed as the “requirements_path” parameter. This consequently may allow an unprivileged third party to cause remote code execution, denial of service, affecting both confidentiality and integrity.
Impacted versions: <2.214.3
Credit
We would like to thank HiddenLayer for collaborating on this issue through the coordinated vulnerability disclosure process.
Workarounds
Do not override the “requirements_path” parameter of capture_dependencies function in sagemaker.serve.save_retrive.version_1_0_0.save.utils, instead use the default value.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for sagemaker, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update sagemaker to 2.214.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-7pc3-pr3q-58vg 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-7pc3-pr3q-58vg can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-7pc3-pr3q-58vg. 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-7pc3-pr3q-58vg in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds GHSA-7pc3-pr3q-58vg across PyPI dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
