CVE-2026-73624
HighCVSS 8.1Summary
GitPython versions before 3.1.54 contain an arbitrary file overwrite vulnerability in the Diffable.diff method that fails to validate git options passed through kwargs. Attackers can supply the --output argument via the other parameter or output kwarg to write patch content to attacker-chosen file paths at process privilege level.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could overwrite arbitrary files on the server, potentially leading to configuration changes, malicious code injection, or service disruption.
Recommendation
Upgrade GitPython to version 3.1.54 or later.
