GHSA-jx7v-gmqc-6xrj
HIGHGHSA-jx7v-gmqc-6xrj is a high-severity (CVSS 8.3) Incorrect Default Permissions vulnerability in manila. 1 public exploit reference exists, so weaponization risk is real. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-jx7v-gmqc-6xrj is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.

Description
OpenStack Manila <7.4.1, >=8.0.0 <8.1.1, and >=9.0.0 <9.1.1 allows attackers to view, update, delete, or share resources that do not belong to them, because of a context-free lookup of a UUID. Attackers may also create resources, such as shared file systems and groups of shares on such share networks.
Affected Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Vulnerable range | Fix |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🐍PyPI | manila | all versions | 7.4.1 |
| 🐍PyPI | manila | ≥ 8.0.0&&< 8.1.1 | 8.1.1 |
| 🐍PyPI | manila | ≥ 9.0.0&&< 9.1.1 | 9.1.1 |

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for manila. 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 manila to 7.4.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-jx7v-gmqc-6xrj 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-jx7v-gmqc-6xrj 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-jx7v-gmqc-6xrj. 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-jx7v-gmqc-6xrj in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-jx7v-gmqc-6xrj across PyPI dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
