{"id":"CVE-2026-6951","aliases":["GHSA-hffm-xvc3-vprc"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-6951","summary":"simple-git is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution","details":"Versions of the package simple-git before 3.36.0 are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) due to an incomplete fix for [CVE-2022-25912](https://security.snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-JS-SIMPLEGIT-3112221) that blocks the -c option but not the equivalent --config form. If untrusted input can reach the options argument passed to simple-git, an attacker may still achieve remote code execution by enabling protocol.ext.allow=always and using an ext:: clone source.","published":"2026-04-25T05:00:05.257Z","modified":"2026-09-15T03:48:18.164434034Z","cvss":null,"epss":{"score":0.00877,"percentile":0.55808,"asOf":"2026-08-12"},"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"simple-git","fixedVersion":"3.36.0"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/commit/89a2294febed5dfe737c4c735d936bb6018746a8","label":"steveukx/git-js@89a2294"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://gist.github.com/KKC73/02d1d97f3410756095b501fda0ac8ca6"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-6951.json"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://security.snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-JAVA-ORGWEBJARSNPM-16300211"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://security.snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-JS-SIMPLEGIT-15456078"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-6951"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/6xxx/CVE-2026-6951.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-6951"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2461750"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/commit/89a2294febed5dfe737c4c735d936bb6018746a8"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/steveukx/git-js"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-09-15T03:48:18.164434034Z"}}
