Description

Impact

OMERO.web uses the jquery-form library throughout to handle form submission and response processing. Due to some unpatched potential vulnerabilities in jquery-form, OMERO.web 5.29.2 and earlier may be susceptible to XSS attacks.

Patches

User should upgrade OMERO.web to 5.29.3 or higher.

Workarounds

None.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for omero-web. 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.

  2. Fix

    Update omero-web to 5.29.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-j4gv-6x9v-v23g is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-j4gv-6x9v-v23g is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Tailored to GHSA-j4gv-6x9v-v23g. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
