GHSA-g7xp-jf3x-wcx4
GHSA-g7xp-jf3x-wcx4 is a CWE-863 vulnerability in concrete5/concrete5. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-g7xp-jf3x-wcx4 is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
Concrete CMS is vulnerable to missing authorization in the bulk_user_assignment.php
Exploitation Status
No confirmed exploitation observed yet
- A successful exploit gives an attacker total control of the affected component, not partial access.
- CISA’s own triage has not observed active exploitation or public proof-of-concept code for this CVE as of its last assessment.

EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Real-World Exposure
concrete5/concrete5Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Packagist packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Concrete CMS 9.5.0 and below is vulnerable to missing authorization in the bulk_user_assignment.php which can lead to privilege escalation to Administrative Group. Any authenticated user with access to the bulk user assignment dashboard page can add any user email to any group and can remove legitimate admins.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for concrete5/concrete5. 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 concrete5/concrete5 to 9.5.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-g7xp-jf3x-wcx4 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-g7xp-jf3x-wcx4 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-g7xp-jf3x-wcx4. 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-g7xp-jf3x-wcx4 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-g7xp-jf3x-wcx4 across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
