CosmWasm affected by arithmetic overflows
CVE-2024-58263GHSA-8724-5xmm-w5xq
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (cosmwasm-std 2.0.2, 1.5.4, 1.4.4), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

- CVE-2024-58263: 0.50% estimated exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 42.62 (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-03). This is a model estimate, not proof of exploitation or customer exposure.
Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Some mathematical operations in cosmwasm-std use wrapping math instead of panicking on overflow for very big numbers. This can lead to wrong calculations in contracts that use these operations. Affected functions: - Uint{256,512}::pow / Int{256,512}::pow - Int{256,512}::neg Affected if overflow-checks = true is not set: - Uint{64,128}::pow / Int{64,128}::pow - Int{64,128}::neg

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2024-58263 Advisory: CosmWasm affected by arithmetic overflows IDs: CVE-2024-58263, GHSA-8724-5xmm-w5xq Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2024-58263 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 15:39 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Low (CVSS 3.7) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: cosmwasm-std 2.0.2, 1.5.4, 1.4.4. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - crates.io cosmwasm-std: affected >= 1.3.0, < 1.4.4; >= 1.5.0, < 1.5.4; >= 2.0.0, < 2.0.2; fixed in 1.5.4, 2.0.2, 1.4.4 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - crates.io cosmwasm-std: check the installed version with your package manager. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on cosmwasm-std. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-8724-5xmm-w5xq (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-8724-5xmm-w5xq lists affected ranges: crates.io cosmwasm-std >=1.3.0 =1.5.0 =2.0.0 <2.0.2) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
