GitPython is a python library used to interact with git repositories, high-level like git-porcelain, or low-level like git-plumbing.
Security Fix(es):
GitPython before 3.1.53 fails to properly escape section names in git config files, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary configuration directives through malicious submodule names. Attackers can inject core.sshCommand or other dangerous config keys into the victim's .git/config via createsubmodule or clonefrom operations, achieving remote code execution when git performs ssh operations.(CVE-2026-69097)
