GO-2026-6213 Worktree operations may follow symlinks in github.com/go-git/go-git

Worktree operations may follow symlinks in github.com/go-git/go-git...

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,...

CVE-2026-71556

go-git is an extensible git implementation library written in pure Go. Prior to 5.19.2 and 6.0.0-alpha.5, worktree operations including checkout, status, and add resolve symbolic links inside the working tree without confining resolution to the worktree boundary, so a maliciously crafted reposito...

Symlink Attack

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Symlink Attack in worktreefs.go and worktree.go are vulnerable to symlink traversal in filesystem-backed worktrees. An attacker can modify or overwrite files outside the intended worktree by placing a symlink in the tree and then...
