Echo: gitpython: security update to 3.1.52

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 458869

Description

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

 - GitPython before 3.1.52 is vulnerable to environment-variable exfiltration in Repo.clone_from(). The
 caller-supplied remote URL is passed through Git.polish_url(), which on non-Cygwin platforms calls
 os.path.expandvars() on the URL before invoking git clone. An attacker who controls the clone URL can
 embed $NAME or ${NAME} tokens that are expanded to the values of the hosting process's environment
 variables (e.g., AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY or GITHUB_TOKEN). The resulting URL, now containing the secret, is
 transmitted over the network to an attacker-controlled host during the clone attempt, disclosing the
 secret. (CVE-2026-67322)

Solution

Update the gitpython library and its related packages to version 3.1.52 or later.
