TencentOS Server 4: python-GitPython (TSSA-2025:0060)

high Nessus Plugin ID 239717

Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 4 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0060 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2022-24439:
All versions of package gitpython are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) due to improper user input validation, which makes it possible to inject a maliciously crafted remote URL into the clone command.
Exploiting this vulnerability is possible because the library makes external calls to git without sufficient sanitization of input arguments.

CVE-2023-40267:
GitPython before 3.1.32 does not block insecure non-multi options in clone and clone_from. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2022-24439.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
