GHSA-v7x3-7hw7-pcjg
MEDIUMGHSA-v7x3-7hw7-pcjg is a medium-severity (CVSS 5.3) vulnerability in renovate. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-v7x3-7hw7-pcjg is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
Renovate vulnerable to leakage of temporary repository tokens into Pull Request comments
Real-World Exposure
How broadly this vulnerability is actually deployed: weekly install volume shows current usage, and reverse-dependency count shows how many other packages break if it stays unpatched.
renovatenpmDescription
Impact
Temporary repository tokens were leaked into Pull Requests comments in during certain Go Modules update failure scenarios.
Patches
The problem has been patched. Self-hosted users should upgrade to v19.38.7 or later.
Workarounds
Disable Go Modules support.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for renovate. 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 renovate to 19.38.7 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-v7x3-7hw7-pcjg 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-v7x3-7hw7-pcjg 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-v7x3-7hw7-pcjg. 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-v7x3-7hw7-pcjg in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-v7x3-7hw7-pcjg across npm dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
