Description

Impact

A XSS vulnerability in the provided (outdated) Swagger-UI is exploitable in applications using lithium with Swagger-UI enabled. This allows an attacker gain Remote Code Execution (RCE) and potentially exfiltrate secrets in the context of this swagger session.

Patches

The used swagger-ui was updated by switching to the latest version of dropwizard-swagger in 8b9b406d608fe482ec0e7adf8705834bca92d7df

Workarounds

The risk of injected external content can be reduced by setting up a Content-Security-Policy.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for com.wire:lithium. 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.

  2. Fix

    Update com.wire:lithium to 3.4.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-f36p-42jv-8rh2 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-f36p-42jv-8rh2 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-f36p-42jv-8rh2. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.

Is GHSA-f36p-42jv-8rh2 in your dependencies?

O3 detects GHSA-f36p-42jv-8rh2 across Maven dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
