GHSA-pgxq-p76c-x9cg
formie's unauthenticated front-end submission editing can overwrite existing submissions
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.

Description
Impact
Unauthenticated users could modify existing submissions by posting a known or guessed submission ID to formie/submissions/save-submission.
Patches
Workarounds
Block unauthenticated access to actions/formie/submissions/save-submission, or disable/customize front-end submission editing until patched.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for verbb/formie. 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 verbb/formie to 3.1.26 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-pgxq-p76c-x9cg 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-pgxq-p76c-x9cg 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-pgxq-p76c-x9cg. 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-pgxq-p76c-x9cg in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-pgxq-p76c-x9cg across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
