How severe is GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9?

No CVSS score has been assigned to GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9?

GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 affects the following packages: copyparty (PyPI). Ecosystems affected: PyPI.

How do I fix GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9?

Update copyparty to 1.20.19 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 in my PyPI dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Resolve every user-supplied path to its canonical form and reject anything that escapes the intended directory, and run the component under an account that has no read or write access outside the directory it legitimately serves.

Is GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 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-phv8-wgjp-g4p9?

GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.3%, placing it in the 23th 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-phv8-wgjp-g4p9?

GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 is classified as Path Traversal (CWE-22). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-phv8-wgjp-g4p9 was published on October 15, 2026 and was last updated on October 15, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Real-World Exposure

1 pkg affected

🐍copyparty

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

Description

The FTP and FTPS server -- if enabled -- would allow uploading to any folder that the copyparty process had permission to write to.

The FTP-server is default-disabled, and must be explicitly enabled in the config with global-option ftp or ftps to be affected. Additionally, SFTP was not affected at all; only FTP and FTPS.

This was not a full read/write path-traversal; it had the following limitations:

Only applied to uploads; it was not possible to read/download existing files in this manner.
The output filename was not fully controllable; a randomized suffix would always be appended to the filename.
Existing files could not be overwritten or appended to; only new files could be created.
Filesystem-permissions would prevent writing to system folders, as copyparty surely does not run as root in most deployments.
Copyparty itself will not execute arbitrary files as code by default, so this vulnerability could not be used to execute arbitrary code through copyparty.

The main concern is the potential effect on other unrelated software which is running on the same system.

The severity is assuming the worst case (SC:H/SI:H), that the same machine is running some unrelated software that will execute new arbitrarily-named files as code, and that the copyparty process has sufficient privileges to write files into the config-folder of that unrelated software.
