7.5 HIGH

Network-reachable with no authentication or special conditions beyond attacker-controlled redirect; impact is purely credential confidentiality with no integrity or availability consequence.

DescriptionCVE.org

gitoxide's gix-url crate (<= 0.32.0, fixed in 0.37.1) uses a hand-rolled URL parser that does not treat '?' or '#' as terminating the authority component, contrary to RFC 3986. As a consequence, gix-transport's HTTP redirect identity guard (can_reuse_identity) compares the wrong host and fails open. An attacker controlling a redirect response can craft a Location header of the form <attacker-authority>?@<original-authority> so that gitoxide sends the caller's HTTP Basic Authorization credentials to an unintended host. gix-transport is affected in versions <= 0.49.0 (fixed in 0.58.1).

AnalysisAI

Credential exfiltration in gitoxide's gix-transport crate allows a server controlling an HTTP redirect response to steal the caller's HTTP Basic Authorization credentials by exploiting a hand-rolled URL parser in gix-url that misidentifies the authority component of crafted redirect URLs. Affected are gix-url versions ≤ 0.32.0 and gix-transport versions ≤ 0.49.0; the redirect identity guard can_reuse_identity fails open when the parser does not treat '?' or '#' as authority terminators per RFC 3986, causing credentials to be forwarded to an unintended host. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the client use gitoxide (gix-transport ≤ 0.49.0 and gix-url ≤ 0.32.0) to perform HTTP or HTTPS-based git operations where credentials are configured as HTTP Basic Authorization. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H) reflects a theoretically high-severity credential theft path with no authentication or precondition requirements. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade gix-url to version 0.37.1 or later and gix-transport to version 0.58.1 or later, as described in the vendor advisory at https://github.com/GitoxideLabs/gitoxide/security/advisories/GHSA-jrcm-326h-gpp8. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all systems using gitoxide gix-url versions ≤0.32.0 and gix-transport versions ≤0.49.0 across development, CI/CD, and automation infrastructure. …
