CVE-2022-24066: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command ('Command Injection')

April 1, 2022 (updated August 8, 2023)

The package simple-git before 3.5.0 is vulnerable to Command Injection due to an incomplete fix of CVE-2022-24433 which only patches against the git fetch attack vector. A similar use of the –upload-pack feature of git is also supported for git clone, which the prior fix didn’t cover.
