GHSA-wjxj-f8rg-99wx
HIGHGHSA-wjxj-f8rg-99wx is a high-severity (CVSS 7.5) CWE-295 vulnerability in org.apache.thrift:libthrift. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-wjxj-f8rg-99wx is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
Improper Input Validation in Apache Thrift

Description
Apache Thrift Java client library versions 0.5.0 prior to 0.9.3-1 and 0.10.0 prior to 0.12.0 can bypass SASL negotiation isComplete validation in the org.apache.thrift.transport.TSaslTransport class. An assert used to determine if the SASL handshake had successfully completed could be disabled in production settings making the validation incomplete.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.apache.thrift:libthrift. 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 org.apache.thrift:libthrift to 0.9.3-1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-wjxj-f8rg-99wx 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-wjxj-f8rg-99wx 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-wjxj-f8rg-99wx. 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-wjxj-f8rg-99wx in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-wjxj-f8rg-99wx across Maven dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
