  • GHSA-xfhp-jf8p-mh5wHashiCorp go-getter Vulnerable to Code Execution On Git Update Via Git Config Manipulation2024-06-25ghsa · osvUS

    HashiCorp’s go-getter library can be coerced into executing Git update on an existing maliciously modified Git Configuration, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution. When go-getter is performing a Git operation, go-getter will try to clone the given repository in a specified destination. Cloning initializes a git config to the provided destination and if the repository needs to get updated go-getter will pull the new changes . An attacker may alter the Git config after the cloning step to set an arbitrary Git configuration to achieve code execution.

  • GO-2024-2948Code Execution on Git update in github.com/hashicorp/go-getter2024-06-28vendor · osvUS

    A crafted request can execute Git update on an existing maliciously modified Git Configuration. This can potentially lead to arbitrary code execution. When performing a Git operation, the library will try to clone the given repository to a specified destination. Cloning initializes a git config in the provided destination. An attacker may alter the Git config after the cloning step to set an arbitrary Git configuration to achieve code execution.
