Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Unsafe Dependency Resolution via the core.fsmonitor configuration option in the .git/config file. An attacker can execute arbitrary code by convincing a user (or tool) to scan a specially crafted repository that contains a malicious core.fsmonitor value, particularly when the repository was copied file-for-file (e.g., using tar, cp, or rsync) and IDEs, GUIs, or CI agents implicitly invoke Git operations such as git status.
