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

Description

An issue was discovered in Cloud Foundry Foundation cf-release versions prior to v257; UAA release 2.x versions prior to v2.7.4.14, 3.6.x versions prior to v3.6.8, 3.9.x versions prior to v3.9.10, and other versions prior to v3.15.0; and UAA bosh release (uaa-release) 13.x versions prior to v13.12, 24.x versions prior to v24.7, and other versions prior to v30. A vulnerability has been identified with the groups endpoint in UAA allowing users to elevate their privileges.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server. 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.

  2. Fix

    Update org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server to 2.7.4.14 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-pgjc-gc7g-p2c6 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-pgjc-gc7g-p2c6 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-pgjc-gc7g-p2c6. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
