Summary

Bumps gitpython minimum from >=3.1.58 to >=3.1.59 to resolve 4 known vulnerabilities flagged by pip-audit (PYSEC-2026-3785 through PYSEC-2026-3788):

CVE Advisory Severity Description
CVE-2026-78676 GHSA-284h-m62q-gf8w CRITICAL (9.8) Config injection RCE — unsafe re-serialization of multi-line git-config values turns dormant quoted values into live directives (e.g. core.hooksPath)
CVE-2026-78678 GHSA-g5vv-9gxw-82hx HIGH Arbitrary file read via incomplete denylist in unsafe_git_revision_options (omits --contents and -S in Repo.blame())
GHSA-whh4-5q6c-9v3x HIGH Additional unguarded git option
GHSA-239g-whfq-7xj9 HIGH Additional unguarded git option

Changes

  • pyproject.toml: bump gitpython>=3.1.58>=3.1.59 in override-dependencies
  • pyproject.toml: bump exclude-newer-package cutoff for gitpython from 2026-08-05 to 2026-08-11 (3.1.59 was released 2026-08-10)
  • Added security comments documenting the new advisories

Notes

  • The uv.lock file will need to be regenerated by CI or a maintainer with the full Python environment.
  • All 4 vulnerabilities are fixed in gitpython 3.1.59+.



gitpython 3.1.58 has 4 known vulnerabilities (PYSEC-2026-3785 through 3788):
- CVE-2026-78676/GHSA-284h-m62q-gf8w: config injection RCE via unsafe
  re-serialization of multi-line git-config values (CVSS 9.8 CRITICAL)
- CVE-2026-78678/GHSA-g5vv-9gxw-82hx: arbitrary file read via incomplete
  denylist in unsafe_git_revision_options (--contents, -S in Repo.blame)
- GHSA-whh4-5q6c-9v3x, GHSA-239g-whfq-7xj9

All fixed in gitpython 3.1.59. Bumps override-dependencies floor and
exclude-newer-package cutoff to 2026-08-11 to admit the release.

Important

Review skipped

Review was skipped due to path filters

⛔ Files ignored due to path filters (1)
  • uv.lock is excluded by !**/*.lock

CodeRabbit blocks several paths by default. You can override this behavior by explicitly including those paths in the path filters. For example, including **/dist/** will override the default block on the dist directory, by removing the pattern from both the lists.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request updates pyproject.toml to require GitPython 3.1.59 or newer, advances the package cutoff date, and documents security advisories affecting earlier GitPython releases.

Changes

GitPython security update

Update GitPython security constraints
pyproject.toml
The package cutoff moves to 2026-08-11. The dependency override changes to gitpython>=3.1.59,<4. Comments document the related GitPython advisories.

Suggested reviewers: joaomdmoura

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to b18d1

The intended GitPython security upgrade is incomplete: locked environments and installations through the published GitHub extra can still use the vulnerable 3.1.58 release. Update both dependency surfaces before merging.

and the pyproject.toml requirement gitpython>=3.1.59. Ensure the lockfile
removes the old cutoff and override and resolves GitPython to version 3.1.59 or
newer.

Security Misconfiguration (CWE-1395)

Raise the published GitHub extra floor.

crewai-tools is a separately packaged project. Its github extra still allows GitPython 3.1.58, while the root override only affects workspace resolution. Change the extra to gitpython>=3.1.59,<4.

Closing in favor of #7244 which covers additional fixes (bumps to 3.1.60, updates crewai-tools pyproject.toml, removes unnecessary exclude-newer-package override).
