SUSE CVE-2026-45022

go-git is an extensible git implementation library written in pure Go. Prior to 5.19.0 and 6.0.0-alpha.3, go-git may parse malformed Git objects in a way that differs from upstream Git. When commit or tag objects contain ambiguous or malformed headers, go-git's decoded representation may expose...

SUSE CVE-2026-45571

go-git is an extensible git implementation library written in pure Go. Prior to 5.19.1 and 6.0.0-alpha.4, a path validation issue in go-git could allow crafted repository data to affect files outside the intended checkout target, including the repository's .git directory. These validations were...

CVE-2026-71556

A flaw was found in go-git, an extensible Git implementation library. Worktree operations, such as checkout, status, and add, resolve symbolic links within the working tree without proper boundary confinement. This allows a remote attacker to craft a malicious repository containing a symlink,...

GHSA-QGQ7-7HM3-Q39J go-git: Malicious reference names may modify files outside the reference storage

Impact A path traversal issue in go-git could allow malicious reference names to access files outside the repository's intended reference storage. Loose references are stored under .git/. The reference name was previously used as a path without verifying that the resolved path remained within the...
