CVE-2026-67326
Last modified
CVE-2026-67326 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.8/10 on the CVSS scale. GitPython before 3.1.50 fails to validate newline characters in the section parameter of config_writer(), allowing attackers to inject arbitrary section headers into .git/config. Attackers can inject newlines to create a forged [core] section with hooksPath pointing to attacker-controlled directories, achieving remote code execution when git hooks are triggered.. EPSS estimates a 0.32% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
