How do I fix GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq?

Update n8n to 1.119.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for n8n, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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.

Is GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq actively exploited in the wild?

Yes. There are 1 known exploit references for GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq, including . All exploit code should only be run in an isolated sandbox environment for research or authorized testing — never against production systems without explicit written authorization.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq?

GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.7%, placing it in the 52th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq?

GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq is classified as CWE-829 (CWE-829). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

Description

Impact

The n8n Git node allows workflows to set arbitrary Git configuration values through the Add Config operation. When an attacker-controlled workflow sets core.hooksPath to a directory within the cloned repository containing a Git hook such as pre-commit, Git executes that hook during subsequent Git operations. Because Git hooks run as local system commands, this behavior can lead to arbitrary command execution on the underlying n8n host.

Successful exploitation requires the ability to create or modify an n8n workflow that uses the Git node.

Affected versions: ≥ 0.123.1 and < 1.119.2

Patches

This issue has been patched in n8n version 1.119.2.

All users running affected versions should upgrade to 1.119.2 or later.

Workarounds

If upgrading is not immediately possible, the following mitigations can reduce exposure:

Exclude the Git node (Docs).
Avoid cloning or interacting with untrusted repositories using the Git Node.

Frequently Asked Questions

### Impact The n8n Git node allows workflows to set arbitrary Git configuration values through the _Add Config_ operation. When an attacker-controlled workflow sets `core.hooksPath` to a directory within the cloned repository containing a Git hook such as `pre-commit`, Git executes that hook during subsequent Git operations. Because Git hooks run as local system commands, this behavior can lead to **arbitrary command execution** on the underlying n8n host. Successful exploitation requires the ability to create or modify an n8n workflow that uses the Git node. Affected versions: **≥ 0.123.1
