GHSA-fwfx-rrv8-crpf
op_panic in the base runtime can force a panic in the runtime's containing thread
Blast Radius
rustyscriptReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects crates.io packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Affected versions use deno_core releases that expose Deno.core.ops.op_panic to the JS runtime in the base core
This function when called triggers a manual panic in the thread containing the runtime.
It can be fixed by stubbing out the exposed op:
Deno.core.ops.op_panic = (msg) => { throw new Error(msg) };

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for rustyscript. 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 rustyscript to 0.6.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-fwfx-rrv8-crpf 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-fwfx-rrv8-crpf 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-fwfx-rrv8-crpf. 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-fwfx-rrv8-crpf in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-fwfx-rrv8-crpf across crates.io dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
