Home / exploits Git LFS Clone Command Execution
Posted on 31 August 2021
Git clients that support delay-capable clean / smudge filters and symbolic links on case-insensitive file systems are vulnerable to remote code execution while cloning a repository. Usage of clean / smudge filters through Git LFS and a case-insensitive file system changes the checkout order of repository files which enables the placement of a Git hook in the .git/hooks directory. By default, this Metasploit module writes a post-checkout script so that the payload will automatically be executed upon checkout of the repository.
