DescriptionCVE.org

Gitingest through 0.3.1 fails to properly validate hostnames in _validate_host, accepting any host with a git., gitlab., or github. prefix regardless of known-hosts list membership. Attackers can submit URLs with attacker-controlled hostnames to trigger outbound connections to arbitrary hosts and disclose GitHub personal access tokens via HTTP basic credentials.

AnalysisAI

Server-Side Request Forgery in Gitingest through 0.3.1 allows unauthenticated attackers to redirect outbound server connections to arbitrary attacker-controlled hosts by exploiting a prefix-only hostname validation bypass in the _validate_host function. Because Gitingest may carry GitHub personal access tokens as HTTP basic auth credentials on outbound git requests, any host whose name begins with git., gitlab., or github. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker must be able to submit a repository URL to the target Gitingest instance - per the PR:N metric, no prior authentication to Gitingest itself is required, though if the UI:P metric applies, the attacker may need to induce a legitimate user to submit the crafted URL. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.3 with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P reflects low attack complexity and no authentication requirement, with high confidentiality impact on both the vulnerable system (VC:H, token exfiltration) and subsequent systems (SC:H, SSRF-reachable internal resources). … 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 No vendor-released patch has been confirmed in the available data; the GitHub issue (https://github.com/coderamp-labs/gitingest/issues/592) and the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/gitingest-prefix-based-git-host-check-enables-request-forgery-and-token-disclosure) should be monitored for a fixed release. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all Gitingest deployments and confirm which GitHub personal access tokens are configured; examine logs for outbound HTTP connections to hosts starting with 'git.', 'gitlab.', or 'github.' as indicators of exploitation attempts. …
