Git LFS permits exfiltration of credentials via crafted HTTP URLs

view advisory published 2025-01-14Licence: CC-BY-4.0

### Impact When Git LFS requests credentials from Git for a remote host, it passes portions of the host's URL to the `git-credential(1)` command without checking for embedded line-ending control characters, and then sends any credentials it receives back from the Git credential helper to the remote host. By inserting URL-encoded control characters such as line feed (LF) or carriage return (CR) characters into the URL, an attacker may be able to retrieve a user's Git credentials. ### Patches This problem exists in all previous versions and is patched in v3.6.1. All users should upgrade to v3.6.1. ### Workarounds There are no workarounds known at this time. ### References * https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/security/advisories/GHSA-q6r2-x2cc-vrp7 * https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-53263 * https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2024-53263 * https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/releases/tag/v3.6.1 * [git-lfs/git-lfs@0345b6f816](https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/commit/0345b6f816e611d050c0df67b61f0022916a1c90) ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * For general questions, start a discussion in the Git LFS [discussion forum](https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/discussions). * For reports of additional vulnerabilities, please follow the Git LFS [security reporting policy](https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/blob/main/SECURITY.md).
