GHSA-93mx-2vf9-28c4 is a medium-severity (CVSS 5.3) Path Traversal vulnerability in org.jenkins-ci.plugins:embeddable-build-status. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-93mx-2vf9-28c4 is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
Path Traversal vulnerability in Jenkins Embeddable Build Status Plugin
Real-World Exposure
org.jenkins-ci.plugins:embeddable-build-statusReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Maven packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Jenkins Embeddable Build Status Plugin 2.0.3 and earlier allows specifying a style query parameter that is used to choose a different SVG image style without restricting possible values, resulting in a relative path traversal vulnerability that allows attackers without Overall/Read permission to specify paths to other SVG images on the Jenkins controller file system.
Embeddable Build Status Plugin 2.0.4 restricts the style query parameter to one of the three legal values.
Affected Packages

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.plugins:embeddable-build-status. 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.
Fix
Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:embeddable-build-status to 2.0.4 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-93mx-2vf9-28c4 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 pinpoints whether GHSA-93mx-2vf9-28c4 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-93mx-2vf9-28c4. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-93mx-2vf9-28c4 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-93mx-2vf9-28c4 across Maven dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
