Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionCVE.org
gitoxide is a pure Rust implementation of Git. gix-transport does not check the username part of a URL for text that the external ssh program would interpret as an option. A specially crafted clone URL can smuggle options to SSH. The possibilities are syntactically limited, but if a malicious clone URL is used by an application whose current working directory contains a malicious file, arbitrary code execution occurs. This is related to the patched vulnerability GHSA-rrjw-j4m2-mf34, but appears less severe due to a greater attack complexity. This issue has been patched in versions 0.35.0, 0.42.0 and 0.62.0.
AnalysisAI
gitoxide is a pure Rust implementation of Git. Rated medium severity (CVSS 6.4), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable. No vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Command Injection (CWE-77), which allows attackers to inject arbitrary commands into system command execution. gitoxide is a pure Rust implementation of Git. gix-transport does not check the username part of a URL for text that the external ssh program would interpret as an option.
