Which packages are affected by GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f?

GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f affects the following packages: silverstripe/assets (Packagist). Ecosystems affected: Packagist.

How do I fix GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f?

Update silverstripe/assets to 1.11.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f in my Packagist dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for silverstripe/assets. 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.

How do I mitigate GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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 does O3 Security protect against GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f?

GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.5%, placing it in the 40th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f?

GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f is classified as Cross-site Scripting (XSS) (CWE-79). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-vv3r-fxqp-vr3f was published on November 21, 2022 and was last updated on February 20, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Packagist packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

A malicious content author could upload a GPX file with a Javascript payload. The payload could then be executed by luring a legitimate user to view the file in a browser with support for GPX files. GPX is an XML-based format used to store GPS data.

By default, Silverstripe CMS will no longer allow GPX files to be uploaded to the assets area.
