{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2026-34165","details":"go-git is an extensible git implementation library written in pure Go. From version 5.0.0 to before version 5.17.1, a vulnerability has been identified in which a maliciously crafted .idx file can cause asymmetric memory consumption, potentially exhausting available memory and resulting in a denial-of-service (DoS) condition. Exploitation requires write access to the local repository's .git directory, it order to create or alter existing .idx files. This issue has been patched in version 5.17.1.","modified":"2026-07-02T18:02:40.562656030Z","published":"2026-03-31T15:16:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-34165"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-34165"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-34165"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/go-git/go-git/releases/tag/v5.17.1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/go-git/go-git/security/advisories/GHSA-jhf3-xxhw-2wpp"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"golang-github-go-git-go-git","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-go-git-go-git?arch=source&distro=esm-apps%2Fjammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["5.4.2-3","5.4.2-3ubuntu0.1~esm1","5.4.2-3ubuntu0.1~esm2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"5.4.2-3ubuntu0.1~esm2","binary_name":"go-git"},{"binary_name":"golang-github-go-git-go-git-dev","binary_version":"5.4.2-3ubuntu0.1~esm2"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-34165.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-go-git-go-git","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:24.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-go-git-go-git?arch=source&distro=esm-apps%2Fnoble"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["5.4.2-3build1","5.4.2-4","5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.1","5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.2","5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.2+esm1","5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.3","5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.3+esm1","5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.3+esm2","5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.3+esm3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"go-git","binary_version":"5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.3+esm3"},{"binary_version":"5.4.2-4ubuntu0.24.04.3+esm3","binary_name":"golang-github-go-git-go-git-dev"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-34165.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-go-git-go-git","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:25.10","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-go-git-go-git?arch=source&distro=questing"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["5.14.0-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"go-git","binary_version":"5.14.0-1"},{"binary_name":"golang-github-go-git-go-git-dev","binary_version":"5.14.0-1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-34165.json"}},{"package":{"name":"golang-github-go-git-go-git","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:26.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/golang-github-go-git-go-git?arch=source&distro=esm-apps%2Fresolute"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["5.14.0-1","5.16.2-1","5.16.2-1ubuntu0.1~esm1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"go-git","binary_version":"5.16.2-1ubuntu0.1~esm1"},{"binary_version":"5.16.2-1ubuntu0.1~esm1","binary_name":"golang-github-go-git-go-git-dev"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2026/UBUNTU-CVE-2026-34165.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
