Description

Duplicate Advisory: GitPython: Arbitrary file read via --pathspec-from-file in IndexFile.remove() and Head.checkout() ## Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-hh9p-6wh2-4mfc. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ## Original Description GitPython versions before 3.1.58 fail to validate options passed to git rm and git checkout commands in IndexFile.remove() and Head.checkout(). Attackers can supply --pathspec-from-file and --pathspec-file-nul parameters to read arbitrary files accessible to the process, with full file contents returned in GitCommandError.stderr.
