HIGHMissing "--allow-net" permission check for built-in Node modules
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.

deno🦀deno_runtimeReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects crates.io packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Impact
Outbound HTTP requests made using the built-in "node:http" or "node:https" modules are incorrectly not checked against the network permission allow list (--allow-net). Dependencies relying on these built-in modules are subject to the vulnerability too.
Users of Deno versions prior to 1.34.0 are unaffected. Deno Deploy users are unaffected.
Patches
This problem has been patched in Deno v1.34.1 and all users are recommended to update to this version.
Workarounds
No workaround is available for this issue.
Affected Packages

|---|---|---|---|
| 🦀crates.io | deno | ≥ 1.34.0&&< 1.34.1 | 1.34.1 |

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for deno. 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 deno to 1.34.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-vc52-gwm3-8v2f 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-vc52-gwm3-8v2f 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-vc52-gwm3-8v2f. 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-vc52-gwm3-8v2f in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-vc52-gwm3-8v2f across crates.io dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
