GHSA-cwcp-6c48-fm7m
CRITICALGHSA-cwcp-6c48-fm7m is a critical-severity (CVSS 9.8) Code Injection vulnerability in summit. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-cwcp-6c48-fm7m is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
Unsafe eval() in summit allows arbitrary code execution
Real-World Exposure
summitReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects npm packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Affected versions of summit allow attackers to execute arbitrary commands via collection names when using the PouchDB driver.
Recommendation
No direct patch is available at this time.
Currently, the best option to mitigate the issue is to avoid using the PouchDB driver, as the package author has abandoned this feature entirely.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for summit. 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.
Remediation status
No patched version of summit has shipped for GHSA-cwcp-6c48-fm7m yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
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-cwcp-6c48-fm7m 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-cwcp-6c48-fm7m. 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-cwcp-6c48-fm7m in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-cwcp-6c48-fm7m across npm dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
