Description

Summary

In eza, there exists a potential heap overflow vulnerability, first seen when using Ubuntu for Raspberry Pi series system, on ubuntu-raspi kernel, relating to the .git directory.

Details

The vulnerability seems to be triggered by the .git directory in some projects. This issue may be related to specific files, and the directory structure also plays a role in triggering the vulnerability. Files/folders that may be involved in triggering the vulnerability include .git/HEAD, .git/refs, and .git/objects.

As @polly pointed out to me, this is likely caused by GHSA-j2v7-4f6v-gpg8, which we do seem to use currently.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for eza. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.

  2. Fix

    Update eza to 0.18.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-3qx3-6hxr-j2ch is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-3qx3-6hxr-j2ch is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Tailored to GHSA-3qx3-6hxr-j2ch. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
