Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
SSRF: Detectors verifying credentials are vulnerable to SSRF (including CVE-2024-43379) if they allow outbound connections to local or loopback networks. This has required multiple patches to enforce restricted clients and block unspecified IP bypasses.
Remote Code Execution: Scanning untrusted local repositories can lead to Remote Code Execution via malicious git configuration options. Isolation by cloning to a temporary directory is required to mitigate this vector.
Command Injection: Executing shell commands via interpreters can expose the application to command injection. Directly calling binaries with strict argument arrays is required to bypass shell evaluation.
