AI-suggested

A fix is available in GitPython version 4.0.4_4. Users should upgrade to this version or later to remediate the vulnerability. The vendor advisory confirms the patch availability. Until upgrading, avoid passing untrusted or attacker-controlled keyword argument keys to GitPython methods that invoke git commands. The vulnerability is in the defense-in-depth control 'allow_unsafe_options=False' which is bypassed by this issue; using 'allow_unsafe_options=True' is out of scope and does not mitigate this vulnerability.

Description

GitPython versions from 1.1.0 up to but not including 4.0.4_4 contain a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2026-67325) due to incomplete blocking of unsafe git options. The vulnerability arises because the fix for a previous issue (CVE-2026-42215) only blocked exact matches of dangerous options but did not account for git's acceptance of unambiguous long-option prefix abbreviations. This allows attackers controlling keyword argument keys to bypass the blocklist and execute arbitrary commands during clone, fetch, pull, or push operations. A fix is available in version 4.0.4_4.
