What is CVE-2024-21532?
The ggit package is susceptible to a Command Injection vulnerability that arises from improper handling of user input within the fetchTags(branch) API. This functionality allows a user to specify which branch to fetch, but the method concatenates that input directly into a git command. Consequently, if an attacker can manipulate the user input, they can potentially execute arbitrary commands through the unsafe exec() method of Node.js child process API, posing significant security risks. Developers employing ggit should review their implementations and consider remediation strategies to mitigate these risks.
