Description

Given this Hurl file:

regex.hurl:

GET https://foo.com
HTTP 200
[Asserts]
jsonpath "$.body" matches /<img src="" onerror="alert('Hi!')">/

When exported to HTML:

$ hurlfmt --out html regex.hurl
<pre><code class="language-hurl"><span class="hurl-entry"><span class="request"><span class="line"><span class="method">GET</span> <span class="url">https://foo.com</span></span>
</span><span class="response"><span class="line"><span class="version">HTTP</span> <span class="number">200</span></span>
<span class="line"><span class="section-header">[Asserts]</span></span>
<span class="line"><span class="query-type">jsonpath</span> <span class="string">"$.body"</span> <span class="predicate-type">matches</span> <span class="regex">/<img src="" onerror="alert('Hi!')">/</span></span>
</span></span><span class="line"></span>
</code></pre>

The regex literal /<img src="" onerror="alert('Hi!')">/ is not escaped:

<span class="regex">/<img src="" onerror="alert('Hi!')">/</span></span>

When opened in a browser, the code is run without user interaction:

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update hurl to 7.0.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-v33j-v3x4-42qg is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like GHSA-v33j-v3x4-42qg can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.

Tailored to GHSA-v33j-v3x4-42qg. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
