AI-Generated

GitPython versions prior to 3.1.54 are susceptible to a remote code execution vulnerability that allows attackers to bypass the check_unsafe_options guard by manipulating single-character keyword arguments. This flaw enables the execution of arbitrary OS commands through various Git methods, including clone_from and fetch, by supplying crafted option dictionaries. Organizations utilizing GitPython for automation or integration tasks should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of exploitation.

Original NVD Description

GitPython versions before 3.1.54 contain a remote code execution vulnerability in the check_unsafe_options guard that can be bypassed by smuggling git options inside single-character kwarg values. Attackers can supply crafted option dictionaries to clone_from, fetch, pull, push, ls_remote, iter_commits, blame, or archive methods to execute arbitrary OS commands via the --upload-pack parameter.
