{"id":"CVE-2025-48384","summary":"Git allows arbitrary code execution through broken config quoting","details":"Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. When reading a config value, Git strips any trailing carriage return and line feed (CRLF). When writing a config entry, values with a trailing CR are not quoted, causing the CR to be lost when the config is later read. When initializing a submodule, if the submodule path contains a trailing CR, the altered path is read resulting in the submodule being checked out to an incorrect location. If a symlink exists that points the altered path to the submodule hooks directory, and the submodule contains an executable post-checkout hook, the script may be unintentionally executed after checkout. This vulnerability is fixed in v2.43.7, v2.44.4, v2.45.4, v2.46.4, v2.47.3, v2.48.2, v2.49.1, and v2.50.1.","aliases":["BIT-git-2025-48384","ECHO-5396-ec04-a3b9","GHSA-vwqx-4fm8-6qc9"],"modified":"2026-04-17T04:27:02.761576Z","published":"2025-07-08T18:23:48.710Z","related":["ALSA-2025:11462","ALSA-2025:11533","ALSA-2025:11534","SUSE-SU-2025:03012-1","SUSE-SU-2025:03022-1","SUSE-SU-2025:03037-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20721-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20855-1","openSUSE-SU-2025:15337-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"GitHub_M","cwe_ids":["CWE-436","CWE-59"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/48xxx/CVE-2025-48384.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2025/Sep/60"},{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/07/08/4"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2025/10/msg00003.html"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog?field_cve=CVE-2025-48384"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/48xxx/CVE-2025-48384.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/git/git/security/advisories/GHSA-vwqx-4fm8-6qc9"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-48384"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/git/git","events":[{"introduced":"b32feae0f1b21faaf8e191e8d3314a32470a536b"},{"fixed":"d82adb61ba2fd11d8f2587fca1b6bd7925ce4044"}]}],"versions":["v2.50.0","v2.50.0-rc0","v2.50.0-rc1","v2.50.0-rc2"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2025-48384.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
