Which packages are affected by GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh?

GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh affects the following packages: org.apache.pinot:pinot (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh?

Update org.apache.pinot:pinot to 0.11.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh in my Maven dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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 does O3 Security protect against GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh 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-qj9p-jvmw-82rh?

GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 1.3%, placing it in the 67th 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.

When was GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-qj9p-jvmw-82rh was published on September 25, 2022 and was last updated on May 28, 2025. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

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

Pinot allows you to run any function using Apache Groovy scripts. In versions prior to 0.10.0, Pinot query endpoint and realtime ingestion layer has a vulnerability in unprotected environments due to groovy function support being enabled by default. This issue has been fixed by making function support disabled by default, in version 0.11.0. A potential workaround is to disable groovy script support.
