Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for com.liferay:com.liferay.portal.workflow.kaleo.runtime.impl, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update com.liferay:com.liferay.portal.workflow.kaleo.runtime.impl to 6.0.93 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-876g-49r6-33qj is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.
