Description
Impact
What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?
Storage credentials are written to the console.
Patches
Has the problem been patched? Yes, see #3589 What versions should users upgrade to?
- Any version after or including commit 1d6f852cd6534f4bea978cbdc85c583803d79f77
- No release has been created yet.
Workarounds
Is there a way for users to fix or remediate the vulnerability without upgrading?
- Be aware that
kopia repo status --jsonwill write the credentials to the output without scrubbing them. - Avoid executing
kopia repo statuswith the--jsonflag in an insecure environment where. - Avoid logging the output of the
kopia repo status --jsoncommand.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/kopia/kopia. 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.
Fix
Update github.com/kopia/kopia to 0.16.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-j5vm-7qcc-2wwg is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
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.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-j5vm-7qcc-2wwg 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-j5vm-7qcc-2wwg. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-j5vm-7qcc-2wwg in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-j5vm-7qcc-2wwg across Go dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
