Upgrade github.com/komari-monitor/komari to 0.0.0-20260609084633-98122fa4d110
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

inspect dependencies for github.com/komari-monitor/komari

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by GHSA-hxjg-93wc-h8p8, inspect your project dependencies for Komari:

inspect dependencies for github.com/komari-monitor/komari

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Komari in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.0.0-20260609084633-98122fa4d110), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-918: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), where the web server receives a url or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this url, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination. In Komari, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.
