Summary

Minder does not sandbox http.send in Rego programs

Workarounds

Users should avoid deploying Minder with access to sensitive resources. Unfortunately, this could include access to systems like OpenFGA or Keycloak, depending on the deployment configuration.

Impact

Minder users may fetch content in the context of the Minder server, which may include URLs which the user would not normally have access to (for example, if the Minder server is behind a firewall or other network partition).

Kodem intelligence

Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.

Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47? GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47 is a high-severity security vulnerability in github.com/mindersec/minder (go), affecting versions >= 0.0.72, <= 0.0.83. It is fixed in 0.0.84.
  2. Which versions of github.com/mindersec/minder are affected by GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47? github.com/mindersec/minder (go) versions >= 0.0.72, <= 0.0.83 is affected.
  3. Is there a fix for GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47? Yes. GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47 is fixed in 0.0.84. Upgrade to this version or later.
  4. Is GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

  5. What actually determines whether GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
  6. How do I fix GHSA-6XVF-4VH9-MW47? Upgrade github.com/mindersec/minder to 0.0.84 or later.
