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.
How urgent is this, really
GHSA-qwrj-9hmp-gpxh plotted by exploitation likelihood (EPSS) against impact (CVSS). The shaded corner — EPSS 50%+ and CVSS 7.0+ — is where this CVE doesn't sit, though severity or exploitability alone can still warrant action.
Where this sits among everything scored
Of 378,567 CVEs with a current EPSS score, this one falls in the < 10% band (highlighted). Real counts from FIRST.org, not a sample — log-scaled since the landscape is heavily right-skewed.

Description
Impact
Authenticated users using an external identity provider can continue to use Access Tokens and ID Tokens even after they expire. Using flyteadmin as the OAuth2 Authorization Server is unaffected by this issue.
Patches
1.1.30
Workarounds
Rotating signing keys immediately will:
- Invalidate all open sessions,
- Force all users to attempt to obtain new tokens.
Continue to rotate keys until flyteadmin has been upgraded,

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/flyteorg/flyteadmin, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update github.com/flyteorg/flyteadmin to 1.1.31 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-qwrj-9hmp-gpxh 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 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-qwrj-9hmp-gpxh can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-qwrj-9hmp-gpxh. 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-qwrj-9hmp-gpxh in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds GHSA-qwrj-9hmp-gpxh across Go dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
