Is your app affected by CVE-2024-8537?
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Cursor or any AI coding tool: it runs a free Shippable scan of your project and fixes what it finds. Built with Lovable, Bolt or v0? Scan your live app. Or upload your package file.
Who is affected
agentscope(PyPI) <= 0.1.1
How to check
- Run
pip show agentscopein your project to see the installed version, including copies pulled in by other packages. - Or paste your lockfile into the checker: it lists every package with a known vulnerability, this one included.
- Or run
npx shippable-dev scan localhost:3000in your project folder. It reads your lockfile and flags this vulnerability along with every other known one.
How to fix
Copies a prompt for Claude Code, Cursor or Codex: it checks your lockfiles for this and upgrades it.
- No fixed version of
agentscopeyet. Replace or remove it, or apply the workaround in the advisory below. - If a vulnerable version was live, check your logs and rotate the secrets that server could read.
The advisory
A path traversal vulnerability exists in the modelscope/agentscope application, affecting all versions. The vulnerability is present in the /delete-workflow endpoint, allowing an attacker to delete arbitrary files from the filesystem. This issue arises due to improper input validation, enabling the attacker to manipulate file paths and delete sensitive files outside of the intended directory.
Check your whole app
Dependencies are only half of it. Free and read-only: before you push, run npx shippable-dev scan localhost:3000 in your project folder, no account needed. For your live app, you prove it's yours with a one-line tag first.
