Summary
Umbraco.AI discloses sensitive application configuration values
Workarounds
Since the patch is a breaking change and requires a version jump, it is not recommended to try and implement a workaround.
Resources
Impact
Under certain configurations, a user with elevated privileges may be able to cause sensitive application configuration values, potentially including secret material such as credentials, to be disclosed. Successful exploitation could expose confidential information and, depending on what the affected installation stores in configuration, enable further compromise. Exploitation requires access to the AI section of the backoffice and a specific custom AI provider, which limits real-world exposure.
GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX has a CVSS score of 4.9 (Medium). The vector is network-reachable, high privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (1.14.0); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

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
- What is GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX? GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX is a medium-severity security vulnerability in Umbraco.AI (nuget), affecting versions <= 1.13.0. It is fixed in 1.14.0.
- How severe is GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX? GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX has a CVSS score of 4.9 (Medium). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.
- Which versions of Umbraco.AI are affected by GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX? Umbraco.AI (nuget) versions <= 1.13.0 is affected.
- Is there a fix for GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX? Yes. GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX is fixed in 1.14.0. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether GHSA-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX 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-Q3V2-XJ35-9GRX 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.
