GHSA-xq4h-wqm2-668w
GHSA-xq4h-wqm2-668w is a security vulnerability in github.com/babylonlabs-io/babylon/v4. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-xq4h-wqm2-668w is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
Babylon's BIP322 signature implementation is not fully compliant to the spec
Blast Radius

Description
Summary
The BIP-322 signature verification does not enforce the SIGHASH value to be SIGHASH_ALL, and therefore is not strictly following the spec.
Impact
Non-compliant BIP-322 signatures in proof of possessions can be accepted by the chain.
Affected Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Vulnerable range | Fix |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🐹Go | github.com/babylonlabs-io/babylon/v4 | all versions | 4.1.0 |
Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/babylonlabs-io/babylon/v4. 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 github.com/babylonlabs-io/babylon/v4 to 4.1.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-xq4h-wqm2-668w 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-xq4h-wqm2-668w 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-xq4h-wqm2-668w. 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-xq4h-wqm2-668w in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-xq4h-wqm2-668w across Go dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
