GitPython: Arbitrary Git Repository Creation Outside the Working Tree via Unvalidated .gitmodules Submodule Name in GitPython

Summary GitPython computes the on-disk location of a submodule's separate Git directory .git/modules/ from the submodule's .gitmodules section name with no validation. Because that name is fully attacker-controlled content of a cloned repository, a malicious repository can set a submodule name to...

Directory Traversal

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Directory Traversal via the porcelain.submoduleupdate module when handling attacker-controlled submodule paths from a crafted upstream repository without proper path validation. An attacker can achieve arbitrary code execution by crafti...
