Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-42215 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- gitpython (PyPI): affected from 3.1.30; fixed in 3.1.47\n- gitpython (PyPI): affected from 3.1.30; fixed in 3.1.47\n- GitPython (PyPI): affected from 3.1.30; fixed in 3.1.47\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42215/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42215/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-42215","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-42215/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-42215","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-42215","ECHO-4767-0efd-0b25","GHSA-rpm5-65cw-6hj4","MINI-654g-vwgj-h9mv","MINI-cqmx-r7cc-8jwj","PYSEC-2026-2160","ROOT-APP-PYPI-CVE-2026-42215","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-42215"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python Git library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary commands by bypassing Git option restrictions in GitPython when passing controlled kwargs to clone or fetch methods.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"gitpython","vendor":"gitpython_project"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"GitPython is a python library used to interact with Git repositories. From version 3.1.30 to before version 3.1.47, GitPython blocks dangerous Git options such as --upload-pack and --receive-pack by default, but the equivalent Python kwargs upload_pack and receive_pack bypass that check. If an application passes attacker-controlled kwargs into Repo.clone_from(), Remote.fetch(), Remote.pull(), or Remote.push(), this leads to arbitrary command execution even when allow_unsafe_options is left at its default value of False.
