{"id":"CVE-2022-46648","aliases":["GHSA-pfpr-3463-c6jh"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2022-46648","summary":"ruby-git has potential remote code execution vulnerability","details":"The git gem, between versions 1.2.0 and 1.12.0, incorrectly parsed the output of the `git ls-files` command using `eval()` to unescape quoted file names. If a file name was added to the git repository contained special characters, such as `\\n`, then the `git ls-files` command would print the file name in quotes and escape any special characters. If the `Git#ls_files` method encountered a quoted file name it would use `eval()` to unquote and unescape any special characters, leading to potential remote code execution. Version 1.13.0 of the git gem was released which correctly parses any quoted file names.","published":"2023-01-17T00:00:00Z","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:35.666869794Z","cvss":{"score":8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"epss":{"score":0.01351,"percentile":0.68984,"asOf":"2026-08-23"},"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","name":"git","fixedVersion":"1.13.0"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git/pull/602","label":"ruby-git/ruby-git#602"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://jvn.jp/en/jp/JVN16765254/index.html"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/46xxx/CVE-2022-46648.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-46648"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git/pull/602"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git"},{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2023/01/msg00043.html"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/ruby-git/ruby-git/releases/tag/v1.13.0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rubysec/ruby-advisory-db/blob/master/gems/git/CVE-2022-46648.yml"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-12T03:51:35.666869794Z"}}
