Description

JupyterLab's image viewer allows for cross-site scripting (XSS) when a specially-crafted image file is opened through the image viewer and then opened in a new tab. This XSS issue can be used to cause remote code execution (RCE) on the JupyterLab server.

Impact

This vulnerability allows for arbitrary code execution.

Patches

JupyterLab v4.6.2 and v4.5.10 contain the patch.

Workarounds

Disable the image viewer plugin:

jupyter labextension disable @jupyterlab/imageviewer-extension:plugin

Confirm with:

jupyter labextension list

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for jupyterlab, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update jupyterlab to 4.6.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-gx64-gj6p-pc4c is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.

Fixing This On Your OS

If you run this on a Linux distribution, patch through your package manager against the distro's own security advisory below — it tracks the exact backported fix for your release, which can ship on a different timeline (and sometimes a different severity) than the upstream project.
