Which packages are affected by GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f?

GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f affects the following packages: apache-airflow (PyPI). Ecosystems affected: PyPI.

How do I fix GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f?

Update apache-airflow to 3.1.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f in my PyPI dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for apache-airflow. 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-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f 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-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f 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-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f 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-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f?

GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.3%, placing it in the 26th 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.
