Command injection in simple-git
Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| npm | simple-git | < 3.3.0 | 3.3.0 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
The package simple-git before 3.3.0 is vulnerable to Command Injection via argument injection. When calling the .fetch(remote, branch, handlerFn) function, both the remote and branch parameters are passed to the git fetch subcommand. By injecting some git options, it was possible to get arbitrary command execution.
