Description

CodeWhale versions before 0.8.64 contain an argument injection vulnerability in the git_blame tool that allows attackers to read arbitrary files by injecting git options into the unvalidated rev parameter. Attackers can supply rev values like --contents=/path/to/file to exfiltrate sensitive files such as SSH keys and credentials through the tool output returned to the model.
