{"id":"CVE-2024-35183","aliases":["GHSA-8fg7-hp93-qhvr","GO-2024-2863"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2024-35183","summary":"wolfictl leaks GitHub tokens to remote non-GitHub git servers","details":"wolfictl is a command line tool for working with Wolfi. A git authentication issue in versions prior to 0.16.10 allows a local user’s GitHub token to be sent to remote servers other than `github.com`. Most git-dependent functionality in wolfictl relies on its own `git` package, which contains centralized logic for implementing interactions with git repositories. Some of this functionality requires authentication in order to access private repositories. A central function `GetGitAuth` looks for a GitHub token in the environment variable `GITHUB_TOKEN` and returns it as an HTTP basic auth object to be used with the `github.com/go-git/go-git/v5` library. Most callers (direct or indirect) of `GetGitAuth` use the token to authenticate to github.com only; however, in some cases callers were passing this authentication without checking that the remote git repository was hosted on github.com. This behavior has existed in one form or another since commit 0d06e1578300327c212dda26a5ab31d09352b9d0 - committed January 25, 2023. This impacts anyone who ran the `wolfictl check update` commands with a Melange configuration that included a `git-checkout` directive step that referenced a git repository not hosted on github.com. This also impacts anyone who ran `wolfictl update <url>` with a remote URL outside of github.com. Additionally, these subcommands must have run with the `GITHUB_TOKEN` environment variable set to a valid GitHub token. Users should upgrade to version 0.16.10 to receive a patch.","published":"2024-05-15T21:24:23.656Z","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:28.813830910Z","cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N"},"epss":{"score":0.00237,"percentile":0.14951,"asOf":"2026-09-17"},"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/wolfi-dev/wolfictl","fixedVersion":"0.16.10"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/wolfi-dev/wolfictl/commit/0d06e1578300327c212dda26a5ab31d09352b9d0","label":"wolfi-dev/wolfictl@0d06e15"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/wolfi-dev/wolfictl/blob/488b53823350caa706de3f01ec0eded9350c7da7/pkg/update/update.go#L143"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/wolfi-dev/wolfictl/blob/4dd6c95abb4bc0f9306350a8601057bd7a92bded/pkg/update/deps/cleanup.go#L49"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/wolfi-dev/wolfictl/blob/6d99909f7b1aa23f732d84dad054b02a61f530e6/pkg/git/git.go#L22"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/35xxx/CVE-2024-35183.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/wolfi-dev/wolfictl/security/advisories/GHSA-8fg7-hp93-qhvr"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-35183"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/wolfi-dev/wolfictl/commit/0d06e1578300327c212dda26a5ab31d09352b9d0"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/wolfi-dev/wolfictl/commit/403e93569f46766b4e26e06cf9cd0cae5ee0c2a2"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-12T03:51:28.813830910Z"}}
