PYSEC-2026-3838 GitPython: Unguarded git read-tree option forwarding in IndexFile.from_tree/reset/merge_tree enables arbitrary file overwrite

Summary IndexFile.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...

OESA-2026-3700 python-GitPython security update

GitPython is a python library used to interact with git repositories, high-level like git-porcelain, or low-level like git-plumbing. Security Fixes: GitPython before 3.1.57 contains an incomplete denylist in the unsafegitarchiveoptions guard that omits --add-file and --add-virtual-file options...
