The vulnerability affects versions up to 9ed9f153ba4158a2ad230ee4871b25130da29ffd. Attackers can exploit this flaw by manipulating the \u003ccode\u003ecommand\u003c/code\u003e argument passed to the \u003ccode\u003erepo_path\u003c/code\u003e function within the \u003ccode\u003emain.py\u003c/code\u003e file. This manipulation enables remote command execution on the affected system. Publicly available exploit code exists, increasing the risk of exploitation. The vendor was notified, but did not respond. This vulnerability poses a significant risk to systems running GitPilot-MCP, potentially leading to complete system compromise.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"attack-chain\"\u003eAttack Chain\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker identifies a GitPilot-MCP instance running a vulnerable version (\u0026lt;= 9ed9f153ba4158a2ad230ee4871b25130da29ffd).\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker crafts a malicious HTTP request targeting the \u003ccode\u003erepo_path\u003c/code\u003e function in \u003ccode\u003emain.py\u003c/code\u003e.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWithin the HTTP request, the attacker injects a command payload into the \u003ccode\u003ecommand\u003c/code\u003e argument. This payload is designed to execute arbitrary commands on the server.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe GitPilot-MCP application processes the request without proper sanitization of the \u003ccode\u003ecommand\u003c/code\u003e argument.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe vulnerable \u003ccode\u003erepo_path\u003c/code\u003e function executes the injected command using a system call (e.g., \u003ccode\u003eos.system()\u003c/code\u003e or similar).\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe injected command executes with the privileges of the GitPilot-MCP application user, potentially allowing for escalated privileges if the application runs as a privileged user.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker gains arbitrary code execution on the server.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe attacker can then perform various malicious activities, such as installing malware, stealing sensitive data, or pivoting to other systems on the network.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful exploitation of CVE-2026-6980 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the affected system. The impact of this vulnerability is high, as it could lead to complete system compromise, data breaches, and further malicious activity within the network. Since public exploit code is available, the risk of widespread exploitation is increased. The lack of vendor response further exacerbates the issue, leaving users vulnerable.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"recommendation\"\u003eRecommendation\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspect web server logs for suspicious requests targeting \u003ccode\u003emain.py\u003c/code\u003e with unusual characters or command-like syntax in the \u003ccode\u003ecommand\u003c/code\u003e parameter, and deploy the \u0026ldquo;GitPilot-MCP Command Injection Attempt\u0026rdquo; Sigma rule to detect exploitation attempts.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonitor process creation events for unexpected processes spawned by the GitPilot-MCP application, using the \u0026ldquo;GitPilot-MCP Suspicious Child Process\u0026rdquo; Sigma rule to identify potentially malicious activity.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplement input validation and sanitization for all user-supplied input, especially the \u003ccode\u003ecommand\u003c/code\u003e argument in the \u003ccode\u003erepo_path\u003c/code\u003e function, to prevent command injection attacks.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply any available patches or updates for GitPilot-MCP as soon as they are released to address the vulnerability.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsider deploying a web application firewall (WAF) to filter out malicious requests targeting the \u003ccode\u003erepo_path\u003c/code\u003e function.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e\n","date_modified":"2024-01-02T12:00:00Z","date_published":"2024-01-02T12:00:00Z","id":"/briefs/2024-01-02-gitpilot-command-injection/","summary":"A command injection vulnerability (CVE-2026-6980) in Divyanshu-hash GitPilot-MCP up to version 9ed9f153ba4158a2ad230ee4871b25130da29ffd allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by manipulating the 'command' argument in the repo_path function of main.py, and public exploit code is available.","title":"GitPilot-MCP Command Injection Vulnerability (CVE-2026-6980)","url":"https://feed.craftedsignal.io/briefs/2024-01-02-gitpilot-command-injection/"}],"language":"en","title":"CraftedSignal Threat Feed — Divyanshu-Hash","version":"https://jsonfeed.org/version/1.1"}
