{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-110859","details":"GitPython before 3.2.0 contains an argument injection vulnerability in Head.checkout() that allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by supplying a branch name parsed as a git option. Attackers can host a repository whose default branch is named --pathspec-from-file=\u003cpath\u003e, causing cloning applications that check out the active branch to leak file contents through GitCommandError messages.","modified":"2026-10-15T12:00:06.813198870Z","published":"2026-10-14T23:17:27.183Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-110859"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-110859"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"python-git","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/python-git?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.1.30-1","3.1.30-1+deb12u2","3.1.36-1","3.1.37-1","3.1.37-2","3.1.37-3","3.1.44-1","3.1.45-1","3.1.46-1","3.1.50-1","3.1.61-1","3.1.62-1","3.1.62-2","3.1.62-3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-110859.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python-git","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/python-git?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["3.1.44-1","3.1.45-1","3.1.46-1","3.1.50-1","3.1.61-1","3.1.62-1","3.1.62-2","3.1.62-3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-110859.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"}]}
