What is GHSA-93FV-4PM9-XP28?

GHSA-93FV-4PM9-XP28 is a medium-severity server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in net.dv8tion:JDA (maven), affecting versions >= 6.0.0, < 6.1.3. It is fixed in 6.1.3. Untrusted input controls the target URL of a server-initiated request, which may reach internal services not otherwise accessible from outside.

Which versions of net.dv8tion:JDA are affected by GHSA-93FV-4PM9-XP28?

net.dv8tion:JDA (maven) versions >= 6.0.0, < 6.1.3 is affected.

Is there a fix for GHSA-93FV-4PM9-XP28?

Yes. GHSA-93FV-4PM9-XP28 is fixed in 6.1.3. Upgrade to this version or later.

Is GHSA-93FV-4PM9-XP28 exploitable, and should I be worried?

Whether GHSA-93FV-4PM9-XP28 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-93FV-4PM9-XP28 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-93FV-4PM9-XP28?

Upgrade net.dv8tion:JDA to 6.1.3 or later.

Summary

JDA (Java Discord API) downloads external URLs when updating message components

Workarounds

Avoid sending components from untrusted messages or update to version 6.1.3.

Impact

Anyone using untrusted message components may be affected. On versions >=6.0.0,<6.1.3 of JDA, the requester will attempt to download external media URLs from components if they are used in an update or send request.

If you are used Message#getComponents or similar to get a list of components and then send those components with sendMessageComponents or other methods, you might unintentionally download media from an external URL in the resolved media of a Thumbnail, FileDisplay, or MediaGallery.

Untrusted input controls the target URL of a server-initiated request, which may reach internal services not otherwise accessible from outside. Typical impact: access to internal metadata services, internal APIs, or cloud credentials.

Affected versions

net.dv8tion:JDA (>= 6.0.0, < 6.1.3)

Security releases

net.dv8tion:JDA → 6.1.3 (maven)

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.
