How do I fix GHSA-f3cj-j4f6-wq85?

Update svelte to 5.55.7 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-f3cj-j4f6-wq85 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-f3cj-j4f6-wq85 in my npm dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-f3cj-j4f6-wq85 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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 does O3 Security protect against GHSA-f3cj-j4f6-wq85?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-f3cj-j4f6-wq85 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is GHSA-f3cj-j4f6-wq85 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-f3cj-j4f6-wq85 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

Description

Contents of hydratable promises were not properly stringified, potentially leading to an XSS exploit. You are vulnerable if all of the following is true:

you are using hydratable (an experimental feature at the time of this report)
you are passing attacker-controlled input such that a synchronous value is hydrated, then a promise value, e.g. hydratable('someKey', () => [synchronousValue, promiseValue])
