GHSA-vrcf-g539-x6h3 is a critical-severity (CVSS 9.8) remote code execution vulnerability in rediswrapper. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-vrcf-g539-x6h3 is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
Uncontrolled deserialization of a pickled object in rediswrapper allows attackers to execute arbitrary scripts
Real-World Exposure
rediswrapperReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects PyPI packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Uncontrolled deserialization of a pickled object in models.py in Frost Ming rediswrapper (aka Redis Wrapper) before 0.3.0 allows attackers to execute arbitrary scripts.
Affected Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Vulnerable range | Fix |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🐍PyPI | rediswrapper | all versions | 0.3.0 |
Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for rediswrapper. 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 rediswrapper to 0.3.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-vrcf-g539-x6h3 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-vrcf-g539-x6h3 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-vrcf-g539-x6h3. 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-vrcf-g539-x6h3 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-vrcf-g539-x6h3 across PyPI dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
