- golang-github-go-git-go-git - A highly extensible Git implementation in pure Go
Details
Ionut Lalu discovered that go-git incorrectly handled certain specially
crafted Git server responses. An attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause a denial of service. (CVE-2023-49568, CVE-2025-21614)
Ionut Lalu discovered that go-git incorrectly handled file system paths
when using the ChrootOS implementation. A remote attacker could possibly
use this issue to perform a path traversal and create or modify arbitrary
files, leading to remote code execution. (CVE-2023-49569)
It was discovered that go-git did not properly sanitize arguments when
invoking git-upload-pack using the file transport protocol. An attacker
could possibly use this issue to inject arbitrary flag values when
interacting with local Git repositories. (CVE-2025-21613)

It was discovered that go-git did not properly verify integrity checks for
pack and index files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause
go-git to process corrupted repository data, resulting in unexpected errors
or an incorrect repository state. (CVE-2026-25934)
