Astra Linux – Vulnerability in python-git

GitPython before version 3.1.32 does not prevent the use of insecure non-multi options in clone and clonefrom commands. NOTE: This issue exists due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2022-24439...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in python-git

GitPython is a Python library used to interact with Git repositories. To resolve certain Git references, GitPython reads files from the .git directory. In some cases, the name of the file being read is provided by the user; GitPython does not check whether this file is located outside the .git...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in python-git

All versions of the GitPython package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution RCE due to improper user input validation. This allows for the injection of a maliciously crafted remote URL into the clone command. Exploiting this vulnerability is possible because the library makes external calls to...

PYSEC-2026-3837 GitPython: TagReference.create positional reference bypasses kwargs-only --file guard, enabling arbitrary file read (incomplete fix of 3af0c251)

Summary TagReference.create forwards a caller-influenced positional reference value into git tag without it ever being inspected by the unsafe-option guard, allowing an arbitrary file read the file's contents are returned in-band as the annotated tag message. This is an incomplete-fix bypass of...

PYSEC-2026-3841 GitPython: Arbitrary file read via --pathspec-from-file in IndexFile.remove() and Head.checkout()

Summary IndexFile.remove and Head.checkout forward kwargs into git rm and git checkout with no guard. Passing --pathspec-from-file= together with --pathspec-file-nul makes Git treat the whole file as a single NUL-delimited pathspec, and the unmatched-pathspec error quotes it verbatim. GitPython...

GitPython: Unsafe git option guard bypass via split_single_char_options=False short-option token smuggling enables command execution

SummaryThe checkunsafeoptions guard can be bypassed on every guarded method clone/clonefrom, fetch/pull/push, lsremote, itercommits, blame, archive by combining a single-character kwarg with splitsinglecharoptions=False. The guard's candidate list omits the smuggled option, but transformkwarg emi...

GitPython: Unguarded git read-tree option forwarding in IndexFile.from_tree/reset/merge_tree enables arbitrary file overwrite

SummaryIndexFile.fromtree, IndexFile.reset → fromtree and IndexFile.mergetree append caller-influenced treeish strings positionally to git read-tree with no unsafe-option guard, no allowunsafeoptions parameter, and no -- separator. git read-tree --index-output= writes the resulting index to an...

GitPython: Unguarded git option forwarding in Repo.init enables arbitrary command execution via --template clone hooks

SummaryRepo.init forwards kwargs verbatim to git init with no unsafe-option guard and no allowunsafeoptions parameter. git init --template= copies /hooks/ into the new repo's .git/hooks, so an attacker-controlled template kwarg plants a hook that executes on the next git operation → arbitrary cod...
