How severe is GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c?

No CVSS score has been assigned to GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c?

GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c affects the following packages: fuxa-server (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c?

Update fuxa-server to 1.2.10 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for fuxa-server. 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.

How do I mitigate GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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 does O3 Security protect against GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c actively exploited in the wild?

Yes. There are 1 known exploit references for GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c, including 1 documented proof-of-concept exploit on Exploit-DB. Treat this as actively exploitable and prioritize patching immediately. All exploit code should only be run in an isolated sandbox environment for research or authorized testing — never against production systems without explicit written authorization.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c?

GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 2.7%, placing it in the 84th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c?

GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c is classified as Path Traversal (CWE-22), Missing Authentication (CWE-306). These weakness types describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-88qh-cphv-996c was published on February 5, 2026 and was last updated on February 22, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Summary

Description A path traversal vulnerability in FUXA allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to write arbitrary files to arbitrary locations on the server filesystem. This affects FUXA through version 1.2.9. This issue has been patched in FUXA version 1.2.10.

Impact

This affects all deployments, including those with runtime.settings.secureEnabled set to true.

Exploitation allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to overwrite application and system files. If the attacker can overwrite application code, startup scripts, or configuration files that are later executed/loaded, RCE is likely. Depending on deployment configuration and permissions, this may lead to full system compromise and could further expose connected ICS/SCADA environments to follow-on actions.

Patches

This issue has been patched in FUXA version 1.2.10. Users are strongly encouraged to update to the latest available release.

Notes

GitHub stated this vulnerability is identical to CVE-2025-69981, which was published against the repository out of band before coordinated disclosure concluded. CVE-2025-69981 describes a "CWE-434: Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type" vulnerability. While a CWE-434 is present, it was an unsafe, intended feature of the application that has been locked behind authentication. This report describes a "CWE-35: Path Traversal" that enables an arbitrary file write.
