What is CVE-2026-24480?

QGIS, an open-source geographical information system, was prone to a remote code execution vulnerability due to an insecure workflow in its GitHub Actions. The 'pre-commit checks' workflow utilized the 'pull_request_target' trigger, allowing untrusted code from external pull requests to be executed with elevated privileges, compromising the repository. This code could interact with the base repository's secrets and credentials, exposing users to significant security risks. The issue was addressed in commit 76a693cd91650f9b4e83edac525e5e4f90d954e9, which removed the vulnerable workflow, enhancing overall system security.
