Echo: python-git: security update to 3.2.0

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 477473

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - GitPython from 3.1.62 before 3.2.0 contains a symlink-following flaw in Submodule.move(), which checks the
 destination only lexically and does not reject symbolic links in intermediate path components. An
 untrusted repository can commit a symlink such as vendor pointing outside the worktree, so an application
 moving an initialized submodule beneath it relocates the checkout externally and corrupts the index and
 .gitmodules. (CVE-2026-110860)

Solution

Update the python-git library and its related packages to version 3.2.0 or later.
