How severe is GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759?

No CVSS score has been assigned to GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759?

GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 affects the following packages: raw-cpuid (crates.io). Ecosystems affected: crates.io.

How do I fix GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759?

Update raw-cpuid to 9.1.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 in my crates.io dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 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-jf5h-cf95-w759?

O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Is GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 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-jf5h-cf95-w759?

GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 1.1%, placing it in the 65th 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-jf5h-cf95-w759?

GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 is classified as Improper Input Validation (CWE-20). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 was published on June 17, 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.

🦀raw-cpuid

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects crates.io packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

When activating the non-default feature serialize, most structs implement serde::Deserialize without sufficient validation. This allows breaking invariants in safe code, leading to:

Undefined behavior in as_string() methods (which use std::str::from_utf8_unchecked() internally).
Panics due to failed assertions.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency

Detect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for raw-cpuid, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update raw-cpuid to 9.1.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-jf5h-cf95-w759 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.
