CVE-2026-110860
GitPython 3.1.62 before 3.2.0 Symlink Path Traversal via Submodule.move()
CVSS Score
6.1
EPSS Score
0.0%
EPSS Percentile
0th
GitPython from 3.1.62 before 3.2.0 contains a symlink-following flaw in Submodule.move(), which checks the destination only lexically and does not reject symbolic links in intermediate path components. An untrusted repository can commit a symlink such as vendor pointing outside the worktree, so an application moving an initialized submodule beneath it relocates the checkout externally and corrupts the index and .gitmodules.
