HIGHUnoPim Stored XSS : Cookie hijacking through Create User function
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.

unopim/unopimReal-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
Summary
A vulnerability exists in the Create User process, allowing the creation of a new admin account with an option to upload a profile image. An attacker can upload a malicious SVG file containing an embedded script. When the profile image is accessed, the embedded script executes, leading to the potential theft of session cookies.
Details
- Login as admin
- Go to Create User
- Fill up everything in the registration form then upload SVG image as a profile picture
- In SVG image, add script tag to prepare for XSS attack
- Complete the Create User process
- Right click at the image to obtain image URL address
- XSS triggered

Impact
The stored XSS can lead to session hijacking and privilege escalation, effectively bypassing any CSRF protections in place.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for unopim/unopim. 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 unopim/unopim to 0.1.5 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-cgr4-c233-h733 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-cgr4-c233-h733 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-cgr4-c233-h733. 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-cgr4-c233-h733 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-cgr4-c233-h733 across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
