FKIE_CVE-2026-3515

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-05-24 05:16 - Updated: 2026-05-26 20:06
Severity
8.5 (High) - CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:N
Summary
A vulnerability in the `GitHubRepository` block of the `prefect-github` integration in Prefect version 3.6.18 allows an attacker to inject arbitrary git command-line options via the `reference` field. The `reference` field is concatenated directly into a `git clone` command string without proper sanitization, and then parsed by `shlex.split()`. This enables injection of options such as `-c`, leading to potential Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), credential theft, or remote code execution (RCE). The vulnerability affects both the `aget_directory()` and `get_directory()` methods in `src/integrations/prefect-github/prefect_github/repository.py`. This issue does not affect the GitLab and BitBucket integrations, which use a safer list-based command construction approach.
