Upgrade gitlab.com/uniget-org/cli/cmd/uniget to version 0.27.6 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Argument Injection due to the hook editor handling in cmd/uniget/hooks.go. An attacker can execute arbitrary commands by setting EDITOR or UNIGET_EDITOR to a value containing shell metacharacters and then invoking the hook editing command, which passes the split editor string to exec.Command as separate arguments. This allows the attacker-controlled editor setting to run unintended commands during hook editing, giving code execution with the privileges of the user running uniget and breaking hook-editing workflows for editors that rely on spaces in their command line.
