GHSA-7v3p-h23x-8hwv
GHSA-7v3p-h23x-8hwv is a OS Command Injection vulnerability in mariadb. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-7v3p-h23x-8hwv is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
MariaDB: unsafe usage of `wsrep_sst_receive_address` values on the joiner side
Real-World Exposure
mariadbReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Bitnami packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
MariaDB server is a community developed fork of MySQL server. From versions 10.6.1 to before 10.6.27, 10.11.1 to before 10.11.18, 11.4.1 to before 11.4.12, 11.8.1 to before 11.8.8, and 12.3.1, a high-privileged MariaDB user could've used wsrep_sst_receive_address or wsrep_sst_donor global system variables to execute shell commands as the uid of the mariadbd process on the galera joiner node. This issue has been patched in versions 10.6.27, 10.11.18, 11.4.12, 11.8.8, and 12.3.2.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for mariadb. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update mariadb to 10.6.27 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-7v3p-h23x-8hwv 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 pinpoints whether GHSA-7v3p-h23x-8hwv is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-7v3p-h23x-8hwv. 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-7v3p-h23x-8hwv in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-7v3p-h23x-8hwv across Bitnami dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
