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

Description

In the CSV export feature of the CMS it's possible for the output to contain macros and scripts, which if imported without sanitisation into software (including Microsoft Excel) may be executed.

In order to safeguard against this threat all potentially executable cell values exported from CSV will be prepended with a literal tab character.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency

  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update silverstripe/framework to 3.5.6 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-mqjc-x563-c9q8 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.
