Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: N/A)

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor in Repo.clone_from() and Git.polish_url() when processing an attacker-controlled clone URL. A remote attacker can supply a crafted URL containing environment-variable tokens to disclose sensitive information.

The issue affects non-Cygwin platforms, where environment-variable expansion is applied to the clone URL before it is passed to git clone.
