How do I fix GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj?

Update kibana to 7.15.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj in my npm dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj 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-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj 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-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj?

GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.5%, placing it in the 37th 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-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj?

GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj is classified as Information Exposure (CWE-200), CWE-319 (CWE-319). These weakness types describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-hp5f-qqrw-c8gj was published on May 24, 2022 and was last updated on November 8, 2023. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

It was discovered that Kibana’s JIRA connector & IBM Resilient connector could be used to return HTTP response data on internal hosts, which may be intentionally hidden from public view. Using this vulnerability, a malicious user with the ability to create connectors, could utilize these connectors to view limited HTTP response data on hosts accessible to the cluster.
