No affected components available
A vulnerability in the GitHubRepository block of the prefect-github integration in Prefect version 3.6.18 allows an attacker to inject arbitrary git command-line options via the reference field. The reference field is concatenated directly into a git clone command string without proper sanitization, and then parsed by shlex.split(). This enables injection of options such as -c, leading to potential Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), credential theft, or remote code execution (RCE). The vulnerability affects both the aget_directory() and get_directory() methods in src/integrations/prefect-github/prefect_github/repository.py. This issue does not affect the GitLab and BitBucket integrations, which use a safer list-based command construction approach.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability. The vulnerability can affect other systems as well, not just the initial system. There is a high impact on the confidentiality of the information. There is a low impact on the integrity of the data.
Exploitation activity has been observed. Apply available patches or mitigations urgently.
