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.

Description
Summary
Before 0.15.0, @workos-inc/authkit-remix returned sensitive authentication artifacts from the authkitLoader, specifically sealedSession and accessToken. Because these values were returned from the loader, they were embedded into the server-rendered HTML and became readable by any script with access to the page’s DOM (e.g., in the presence of XSS or a malicious browser extension).
- Impact: Exposure of these secrets can lead to session hijacking and unauthorized API access.
- Fix: Version
0.15.0changes the default behavior so the loader no longer returnssealedSession/accessToken. A secure server-side mechanism is provided to fetch an access token when needed.
Patches
Patched in v0.15.0.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for @workos-inc/authkit-remix. 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.
Fix
Update @workos-inc/authkit-remix to 0.15.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-v3gr-w9gf-23cx 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 pinpoints whether GHSA-v3gr-w9gf-23cx is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-v3gr-w9gf-23cx. 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-v3gr-w9gf-23cx in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-v3gr-w9gf-23cx across npm dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
