GHSA-965r-9cg9-g42p
HIGHValtimo backend libraries allows objects in the object-api to be accessed and modified by unauthorized users
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.

This vulnerability affects Maven packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Impact
All objects for which an object-management configuration exists can be listed, viewed, edited, created or deleted by unauthorised users.
If object-urls are exposed via other channels, the contents of these objects can be viewed independent of object-management configurations.
Attack requirements
The following conditions have to be met in order to perform this attack:
- A user must be logged in
- No relevant application roles are required
- At least one object-type must be configured via object-management
- The scope of the attack is limited to objects that are configured via object-management.
- The value of
showInDataMenuis irrelevant for this attack
Patches
This issue was patched in version 12.13.0.RELEASE.
Workarounds
It is possible to override the endpoint security as defined in ObjectenApiHttpSecurityConfigurer and ObjectManagementHttpSecurityConfigurer. Depending on the implementation, this could result in loss of functionality.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for com.ritense.valtimo:objecten-api. 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
No patched version of com.ritense.valtimo:objecten-api has shipped for GHSA-965r-9cg9-g42p yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
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-965r-9cg9-g42p 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-965r-9cg9-g42p. 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-965r-9cg9-g42p in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-965r-9cg9-g42p across Maven dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
