Description

CVE-2026-91986 is a medium severity injection vulnerability in GitoxideLabs gitoxide affecting versions before 0.59.2. The gitoxide gix-transport component does not properly filter control characters in git-daemon connect requests, allowing injection of NUL, CR, and LF bytes via crafted git URLs. This can enable spoofing of virtual hosts or insertion of newlines into daemon requests and logs.
