FKIE_CVE-2026-47712

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-06-10 23:16 - Updated: 2026-07-21 19:10
Summary
Dulwich is a pure-Python implementation of the Git file formats and protocols. Starting in version 0.24.0 and prior to version 1.2.5, dulwich.porcelain.format_patch(outdir=...) derives each patch filename from the commit's subject line. Prior to this fix, get_summary only replaced spaces with dashes - path separators (/, \), parent-directory components (..), and other filename-hostile characters (e.g. :) were preserved verbatim and passed straight into os.path.join(outdir, f"{i:04d}-{summary}.patch"). A malicious commit subject could therefore direct the generated patch file outside the requested outdir. This is fixed in Dulwich 1.2.5. Users should upgrade to 1.2.5 or later. dulwich.patch.get_summary now mirrors git's format_sanitized_subject: only `[A-Za-z0-9._]` are kept, runs of other characters collapse to a single -, consecutive . collapse to a single ., trailing ./- are stripped, and the result is length-limited. This makes the returned string safe to embed as a filename component, so format_patch can no longer be steered out of outdir via the commit subject. Until upgrading, callers that pass untrusted commits to porcelain.format_patch can use stdout=True and write the patch to a destination they control, rather than letting format_patch choose the filename; validate the chosen path before opening - e.g. compare os.path.realpath(returned_path) against os.path.realpath(outdir) and reject any patch whose resolved path is not inside outdir; and/or pre-screen commits and refuse to format any whose subject's first line contains /, \, .., or other characters that are not safe on the target filesystem.

      "value": "Dulwich es una implementaci\u00f3n puramente en Python de los formatos de archivo y protocolos de Git. A partir de la versi\u00f3n 0.24.0 y antes de la versi\u00f3n 1.2.5, dulwich.porcelain.format_patch(outdir=...) deriva cada nombre de archivo de parche de la l\u00ednea de asunto del commit. Antes de esta correcci\u00f3n, get_summary solo reemplazaba los espacios con guiones - los separadores de ruta (/, \\), los componentes de directorio padre (..), y otros caracteres hostiles para nombres de archivo (p. ej. :) se conservaban textualmente y se pasaban directamente a os.path.join(outdir, f\"{i:04d}-{summary}.patch\"). Un asunto de commit malicioso podr\u00eda, por lo tanto, dirigir el archivo de parche generado fuera del outdir solicitado. Esto se corrige en Dulwich 1.2.5. Los usuarios deber\u00edan actualizar a la versi\u00f3n 1.2.5 o posterior. dulwich.patch.get_summary ahora refleja el format_sanitized_subject de git: solo se mantienen \u0027[A-Za-z0-9._]\u0027, las secuencias de otros caracteres se colapsan a un solo -, los puntos consecutivos se colapsan a un solo ., los ./- finales se eliminan, y el resultado tiene una longitud limitada. Esto hace que la cadena devuelta sea segura para incrustar como un componente de nombre de archivo, por lo que format_patch ya no puede ser dirigido fuera de outdir a trav\u00e9s del asunto del commit. Hasta que se actualice, los llamadores que pasan commits no confiables a porcelain.format_patch pueden usar stdout=True y escribir el parche en un destino que controlen, en lugar de dejar que format_patch elija el nombre de archivo; validar la ruta elegida antes de abrir - p. ej. comparar os.path.realpath(returned_path) con os.path.realpath(outdir) y rechazar cualquier parche cuya ruta resuelta no est\u00e9 dentro de outdir; y/o pre-filtrar commits y negarse a formatear cualquiera cuya primera l\u00ednea del asunto contenga /, \\, .., u otros caracteres que no sean seguros en el sistema de archivos de destino."
