Which packages are affected by GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x?

GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x affects the following packages: neutron (PyPI), neutron (PyPI), neutron (PyPI). Ecosystems affected: PyPI.

How do I fix GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x?

Update neutron to 13.0.0.0b2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x in my PyPI dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for neutron. 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-8q95-jj7p-x93x 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-8q95-jj7p-x93x?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x 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-8q95-jj7p-x93x actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x?

GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 1.2%, placing it in the 63th 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-8q95-jj7p-x93x?

GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x is classified as CWE-300 (CWE-300). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-8q95-jj7p-x93x was published on May 13, 2022 and was last updated on December 5, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects PyPI packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

Live-migrated instances are briefly able to inspect traffic for other instances on the same hypervisor. This brief window could be extended indefinitely if the instance's port is set administratively down prior to live-migration and kept down after the migration is complete. This is possible due to the Open vSwitch integration bridge being connected to the instance during migration. When connected to the integration bridge, all traffic for instances using the same Open vSwitch instance would potentially be visible to the migrated guest, as the required Open vSwitch VLAN filters are only applied post-migration. Versions of openstack-neutron before 13.0.0.0b2, 12.0.3, 11.0.5 are vulnerable.
