Which packages are affected by GHSA-hm3c-93pg-4cxw?

GHSA-hm3c-93pg-4cxw affects the following packages: gradio (PyPI). Ecosystems affected: PyPI.

How do I fix GHSA-hm3c-93pg-4cxw?

Update gradio to 4.44.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-hm3c-93pg-4cxw is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-hm3c-93pg-4cxw in my PyPI dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for gradio. 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-hm3c-93pg-4cxw 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-hm3c-93pg-4cxw?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-hm3c-93pg-4cxw 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-hm3c-93pg-4cxw actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-hm3c-93pg-4cxw 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.

Description

Impact

What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?

This vulnerability involves data exposure due to the enable_monitoring flag not properly disabling monitoring when set to False. Even when monitoring is supposedly disabled, an attacker or unauthorized user can still access the monitoring dashboard by directly requesting the /monitoring endpoint. This means that sensitive application analytics may still be exposed, particularly in environments where monitoring is expected to be disabled. Users who set enable_monitoring=False to prevent unauthorized access to monitoring data are impacted.

Patches

Yes, please upgrade to gradio>=4.44 to address this issue.
