GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr has a CVSS score of 7.5/10, rated HIGH. Immediate patching is strongly recommended.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr?

GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr affects the following packages: github.com/stripe/stripe-cli (Go). Ecosystems affected: Go.

How do I fix GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr?

Update github.com/stripe/stripe-cli to 1.21.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr in my Go dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/stripe/stripe-cli. 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-fv4g-gwpj-74gr 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-fv4g-gwpj-74gr?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr 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-fv4g-gwpj-74gr actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr 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.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr?

GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.2%, placing it in the 9th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr?

GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr is classified as Path Traversal (CWE-22). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-fv4g-gwpj-74gr was published on September 5, 2024 and was last updated on November 18, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Impact

A vulnerability exists in stripe-cli versions 1.11.1 and higher where a plugin package containing a manifest with a malformed plugin shortname installed using the --archive-url or --archive-path flags can overwrite arbitrary files.

The update addresses the path traversal vulnerability by removing the ability to install plugins from an archive URL or path.

There has been no evidence of exploitation of this vulnerability.

Recommendation

Upgrade to stripe-cli v1.21.3.
