GHSA-jf2q-463c-6f52
GHSA-jf2q-463c-6f52 is a security vulnerability in github.com/mvt-project/androidqf. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-jf2q-463c-6f52 is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
androidqf: Zip entry Name Injection in APK bundle (Zip Slip for zip consumers)
Real-World Exposure
github.com/mvt-project/androidqfReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Go packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Summary
generateZipPath() constructs zip entry names for collected APKs using device controlled content from extractFileName(). Since extractFileName() does not reject traversal sequences, the resulting zip entry name can contain ../. AndroidQF itself does not extract the zip it creates, but any forensic tool that extracts the acquisition bundle without zip-slip protection could write files to attacker chosen paths.
Impact
A compromised device could inject path traversal sequences into the acquisition bundle's zip entry names. When a forensic analyst or forensic tooling extracts the bundle without entry name validation, files could be written outside the intended extraction directory.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/mvt-project/androidqf. 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/mvt-project/androidqf to 1.8.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-jf2q-463c-6f52 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-jf2q-463c-6f52 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-jf2q-463c-6f52. 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-jf2q-463c-6f52 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-jf2q-463c-6f52 across Go dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
