CVE-2026-44244

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Splunk SOAR ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsvorkehrungen zu umgehen, um Informationen offenzulegen, um Dateien zu manipulieren, um einen SQL-Injection Angriff durchzuführen, um einen Cross-Site Scripting Angriff durchzuführen, und um beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen.

`GitConfigParser.set_value()` passes values to Python's `configparser` without validating for newlines. GitPython's own `_write()` converts embedded newlines into indented continuation lines (e.g. `\n` becomes `\n\t`), but Git still accepts an indented `[core]` stanza as a section header — so the injected `core.hooksPath` becomes effective configuration. Any Git operation that invokes hooks (commit, merge, checkout) will then execute scripts from the attacker-controlled path. The vulnerability is not merely malformed config output: GitPython's own writer converts embedded newlines into indented continuation lines, but Git still accepts an indented `[core]` stanza as a section header, so the injected `core.hooksPath` becomes effective configuration. This was found while auditing MLRun's `project.push()` method, which passes `author_name` and `author_email` directly to `config_writer().set_value()` with no sanitization. Both parameters cross a trust boundary — they are caller-supplied API inputs that end up in `.git/config`. PoC (standalone, no MLRun required): ```python import git, subprocess, os repo = git.Repo("/tmp/testrepo") with repo.config_writer() as cw: cw.set_value("user", "name", "foo\n[core]\nhooksPath=/tmp/hooks") r = subprocess.run(["git", "config", "core.hooksPath"], cwd="/tmp/testrepo", capture_output=True, text=True) assert r.returncode == 0 print(r.stdout.strip()) # /tmp/hooks os.makedirs("/tmp/hooks", exist_ok=True) open("/tmp/hooks/pre-commit", "w").write("#!/bin/sh\nid > /tmp/pwned\n") os.chmod("/tmp/hooks/pre-commit", 0o755) repo.index.add(["README"]) repo.git.commit(m="test") print(open("/tmp/pwned").read()) # uid=... ``` Tested on GitPython 3.1.46, git 2.39+. Impact: This is persistent repo config poisoning. Any user who can supply `author_name` or `author_email` to an application calling `config_writer().set_value()` can redirect Git hook execution to an arbitrary path. In a multi-user or hosted environment (e.g. a shared MLRun server where multiple users push to the same repositories), one user can poison the `.git/config` of a shared repo and have their hooks run in the context of every subsequent Git operation by any user. On single-user deployments, the impact depends on whether the application later invokes Git hooks automatically. Remediation: `set_value()` should raise on CR, LF, or NUL in values rather than silently pass them through: ```python import re if isinstance(value, (str, bytes)) and re.search(r"[\r\n\x00]", str(value)): raise ValueError("Git config values must not contain CR, LF, or NUL") ``` Rejecting is safer than stripping — a stripped newline might indicate the caller is passing unsanitized input at a higher level, and silent normalization masks that. Affected wherever `config_writer().set_value(section, key, user_input)` is called with external input.** GitPython is a dependency of DVC, MLflow, Kedro, and others — worth auditing their `set_value()` call sites for externally influenced inputs.

GitPython is a python library used to interact with Git repositories. Prior to version 3.1.49, GitConfigParser.set_value() passes values to Python's configparser without validating for newlines. GitPython's own _write() converts embedded newlines into indented continuation lines (e.g. \n becomes \n\t), but Git still accepts an indented [core] stanza as a section header — so the injected core.hooksPath becomes effective configuration. Any Git operation that invokes hooks (commit, merge, checkout) will then execute scripts from the attacker-controlled path. This issue has been patched in version 3.1.49.
