Real-World Exposure
plutoniumReal-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
This crate allows you to write safe functions with unsafe bodies without the unsafe keyword.
The value this adds is questionable, and hides unsafe usages from naive analysis.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for plutonium, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Remediation status
No patched version of plutonium has shipped for GHSA-gfg9-x6px-r7gr yet. Where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range, and apply any maintainer-recommended mitigation.
Mitigate without a patch
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 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-gfg9-x6px-r7gr can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-gfg9-x6px-r7gr. 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-gfg9-x6px-r7gr in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds GHSA-gfg9-x6px-r7gr across crates.io dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
