GHSA-9m6v-8fxc-4r44
Sulu: Used API Keys may be available via Admin API
Blast Radius
sulu/sulu🐘sulu/suluReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Packagist packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Impact
The users endpoint controller exposes a project's apiKey field to the logged-in user, provided they have permission for that endpoint. This only has impact if a project itself uses that specific field, Sulu itself does nothing with it and has no authentication per apiKey in its core.
Patches
A patch is released with Version 2.6.23 and 3.0.5.
Workarounds
Remove the field descriptor by patch the UserController.php File in Sulu Security Bundle.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for sulu/sulu. 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 sulu/sulu to 3.0.6 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-9m6v-8fxc-4r44 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-9m6v-8fxc-4r44 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-9m6v-8fxc-4r44. 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-9m6v-8fxc-4r44 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-9m6v-8fxc-4r44 across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
