How severe is GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf?

GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf has a CVSS score of 7.5/10, rated HIGH. Immediate patching is strongly recommended.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf?

GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf affects the following packages: aoe/restler (Packagist), luracast/restler (Packagist). Ecosystems affected: Packagist.

How do I fix GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf?

Update aoe/restler to 1.7.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf in my Packagist dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for aoe/restler. 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-rvmg-xc29-rvxf 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-rvmg-xc29-rvxf?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf 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-rvmg-xc29-rvxf actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf 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 type of vulnerability is GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf?

GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf 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.

Is there exploit tooling available for GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf?

A Nuclei detection template exists for GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf, meaning automated scanners can fingerprint it. Public exploit tooling significantly increases real-world risk — prioritize patching and ensure detection coverage. Exploit tooling should only ever be used in isolated, authorized testing environments.

When was GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-rvmg-xc29-rvxf was published on May 13, 2022 and was last updated on April 23, 2025. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.
