Description
A security issue was identified in the NanoProxy project related to the golang.org/x/crypto dependency. The project was using an outdated version of this dependency, which potentially exposed the system to security vulnerabilities that have been addressed in subsequent updates.
Impact:
The specific vulnerabilities in the outdated version of golang.org/x/crypto could include authorization bypasses, data breaches, or other security risks. These vulnerabilities can be exploited by attackers to compromise the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of the system.
Resolution:
The issue has been fixed in NanoProxy by upgrading the golang.org/x/crypto dependency to version 0.31.0. Users are strongly encouraged to update their instances of NanoProxy to include this fix and ensure they are using the latest secure version of all dependencies.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/ryanbekhen/nanoproxy, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update github.com/ryanbekhen/nanoproxy to 0.15.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-7prj-hgx4-2xc3 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-7prj-hgx4-2xc3 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-7prj-hgx4-2xc3. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
