Which packages are affected by GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m?

GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m affects the following packages: org.infinispan:infinispan-core (Maven), org.infinispan:infinispan-core (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m?

Update org.infinispan:infinispan-core to 8.2.12.Final or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.infinispan:infinispan-core. 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-h47x-2j37-fw5m 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-h47x-2j37-fw5m?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m 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-h47x-2j37-fw5m actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m 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-h47x-2j37-fw5m?

GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 3.1%, placing it in the 86th 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.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m?

GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m is classified as CWE-470 (CWE-470). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-h47x-2j37-fw5m was published on May 24, 2022 and was last updated on February 20, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Maven packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

A vulnerability was found in Infinispan such that the invokeAccessibly method from the public class ReflectionUtil allows any application class to invoke private methods in any class with Infinispan's privileges. The attacker can use reflection to introduce new, malicious behavior into the application.
