SCA: security update for jupyterlab-git (GHSA-cj5w-8mjf-r5f8)
high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 424764
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- jupyterlab-git is a JupyterLab extension for version control using Git. On many platforms, a third party
can create a Git repository under a name that includes a shell command substitution string in the syntax
$(<command>). These directory names are allowed in macOS and a majority of Linux distributions. If a user
starts jupyter-lab in a parent directory of this inappropriately-named Git repository, opens it, and
clicks "Git > Open Git Repository in Terminal" from the menu bar, then the injected command <command> is
run in the user's shell without the user's permission. This issue is occurring because when that menu
entry is clicked, jupyterlab-git opens the terminal and runs cd <git-repo-path> through the shell to set
the current directory. Doing so runs any command substitution strings present in the directory name, which
leads to the command injection issue described here. A previous patch provided an incomplete fix. This
vulnerability is fixed in 0.51.1. (CVE-2025-30370)
