URL can result in a "ssh" command line with a + hostname that begins with a dash "-", which would cause the "ssh" + command to instead (mis)treat it as an option. This is now + prevented by forbidding such a hostname (which will not be + necessary in the real world). + + * Similarly, when GIT_PROXY_COMMAND is configured, the command is + run with host and port that are parsed out from "ssh://..." URL; + a poorly written GIT_PROXY_COMMAND could be tricked into treating + a string that begins with a dash "-". This is now prevented by + forbidding such a hostname and port number (again, which will not + be necessary in the real world). + + * In the same spirit, a repository name that begins with a dash "-" + is also forbidden now. + +Credits go to Brian Neel at GitLab, Joern Schneeweisz of Recurity +Labs and Jeff King at GitHub. + |
