What is GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C?

GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C is a medium-severity path traversal vulnerability in featurebook (npm), affecting versions >= 0. No fixed version is listed yet. Input manipulates file paths to reach files outside the intended directory, such as configuration or credential files.

Which versions of featurebook are affected by GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C?

featurebook (npm) versions >= 0 is affected.

Is there a fix for GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C?

No fixed version is listed for GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C yet. Monitor the advisory for updates and apply mitigations in the interim.

Is GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C exploitable, and should I be worried?

Whether GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C 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.

What actually determines whether GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C 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.

How do I fix GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C?

No fixed version is listed yet. In the interim: Resolve the canonical path after applying any user-supplied input, and verify it remains within the intended directory before accessing it.

GHSA-7X92-2J68-H32C in featurebook

Summary

Directory Traversal in featurebook

Affected versions of featurebook resolve relative file paths, resulting in a directory traversal vulnerability. A malicious actor can use this vulnerability to access files outside of the intended directory root, which may result in the disclosure of private files on the vulnerable system.

The featurebook package is not intended to be run in production code nor to be exposed to an untrusted network.

Proof of Concept

GET /../../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd HTTP/1.1
host:foo

Impact

Input manipulates file paths to reach files outside the intended directory, such as configuration or credential files. Typical impact: unauthorized file read or write outside the intended directory.

Affected versions

featurebook (>= 0)

Security releases

Not available

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.

Remediation advice

No direct patch is currently available.

At this time, the best mitigation is to ensure that featurebook is not running in production or exposed to an untrusted network.
