NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mageai package and not the mageai package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

GitPython before 3.1.59 fails to safely re-serialize multi-line git-config values during write operations, corrupting dormant quoted values into injected directives like core.hooksPath. Attackers can craft config files with embedded newlines that become live git directives after any unrelated GitPython config write, enabling arbitrary code execution via hook invocation.
