Namada-apps can Crash with Excessive Computation in Mempool Validation
Real-World Exposure
namada-appsReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects crates.io packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Impact
A malicious transaction may cause a crash in mempool validation.
A transaction with authorization section containing 256 public keys or more with valid matching signatures triggers an integer overflow in signature verification that causes a the node to panic.
Patches
This issue has been patched in apps version 1.1.0. The mempool validation has been fixed to avoid overflow.
Workarounds
There are no workarounds and users are advised to upgrade.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for namada-apps, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update namada-apps to 1.1.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-82vg-5v4f-f9wq 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-82vg-5v4f-f9wq can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-82vg-5v4f-f9wq. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
