Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a remote user to disclose sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to improper neutralization of argument delimiters in the high-level diff API when processing attacker-influenced diff options and path operands with --no-index and --ignore-matching-lines. A remote user can send crafted diff options and filesystem path operands to disclose sensitive information.
Exploitation requires an embedding application to expose a distinguishable success or error result and to allow repeated requests.
