CVE-2026-82289
HighCVSS 7.4Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk16th percentile - higher than 16% of all known CVEs
Summary
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.
Risk Assessment
The risk includes unauthorized outbound connections and token leakage, which could lead to account and data security breaches.
Recommendation
Upgrade Gitingest to a version with fixed host validation and restrict URL submission to trusted sources.
