CVE-2026-67326 is fixed in 2 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-67326, released August 2, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High.
GitPython before 3.1.50 fails to validate newline characters in the section parameter of config_writer(), allowing attackers to inject arbitrary section headers into .git/config. Attackers can inject newlines to create a forged [core] section with hooksPath pointing to attacker-controlled directories, achieving remote code execution when git hooks are triggered.
