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

Description

Impact

If an attacker can infer the slug or URL of an unpublished or private resource, and this resource can be embedded (such as a Participatory Process, an Assembly, a Proposal, a Result, etc), then some data of this resource could be accessed.

Patches

version 0.27.6

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update decidim to 0.27.6 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-qcj6-vxwx-4rqv is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Assume what was exposed is already known: rotate any credential, token or key that the affected component could return, restrict the endpoint to callers that genuinely need it, and strip sensitive fields from responses and error output at the boundary rather than relying on the client not to read them.
