No CVSS score has been assigned to GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx?

GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx affects the following packages: mppx (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx?

Update mppx to 0.4.8 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for mppx, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx 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-8x4m-qw58-3pcx?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-8x4m-qw58-3pcx 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.

Description

Impact

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in tempo/charge and tempo/session which allowed for undesirable behaviors, including:

Replaying tempo/charge transaction hashes across push/pull modes, across charge/session endpoints, and via concurrent requests
Performing free tempo/charge requests due to missing transfer log verification in pull-mode
Replaying tempo/charge credentials across routes via cross-route scope confusion (memo/splits not included in scope binding)
Manipulating the fee payer of a tempo/charge handler into paying for requests (missing sender signature before co-signing)
Bypassing tempo/session voucher signature verification
Piggybacking off existing tempo/session channels via settle voucher reuse and weak channel ID binding
Performing free tempo/session requests by exploiting channel reopen without on-chain settled state
Accepting deductions on finalized tempo/session channels
Bypassing payment on free routes via method-mismatch fallback
Griefing tempo/session channels via force-close detection bypass (closeRequestedAt not persisted)

Patches

Fixed in 0.4.8.
