GHSA-f9hx-c6jf-3qxm is a critical-severity (CVSS 9.8) Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in org.pytorch:executorch-android. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-f9hx-c6jf-3qxm is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
ExecuTorch out-of-bounds access vulnerability
Real-World Exposure
org.pytorch:executorch-android🐍executorch📦github.com/pytorch/executorchReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Maven, PyPI, SwiftURL packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
An out-of-bounds access vulnerability in the loading of ExecuTorch models can cause the runtime to crash and potentially result in code execution or other undesirable effects. This issue affects ExecuTorch prior to commit fb03b6f85596a8f954d97929075335255b6a58d4.
Affected Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Vulnerable range | Fix |
|---|---|---|---|
| ☕Maven | org.pytorch:executorch-android | all versions | 0.7.0 |
| 🐍PyPI | executorch | all versions | 0.7.0 |
| 📦SwiftURL | github.com/pytorch/executorch | all versions | 0.7.0 |
Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.pytorch:executorch-android. 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 org.pytorch:executorch-android to 0.7.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-f9hx-c6jf-3qxm 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-f9hx-c6jf-3qxm 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-f9hx-c6jf-3qxm. 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-f9hx-c6jf-3qxm in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-f9hx-c6jf-3qxm across Maven, PyPI, SwiftURL dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
