storage: filesystem, Avoid overwriting loose obj files by pjbgf · Pull Request #1864 · go-git/go-git
Align behaviour with upstream and v6, whereby all loose and packed objects are saved on disk as read-only as they are not meant to be modified due to their nature, as they are content addressable files. Signed-off-by: Paulo Gomes <pjbgf@linux.com>

February 25, 2026 09:58Loose object files are content-addressable and imutable. They should be created on demand and deleted on repacking. However, they should not be overwritten - assuming the initial file isn't corrupted. The previous lack of validation meant those files were being overwritten when in fact they could just be ignored. In Linux, this was a non-issue, however, in Windows this operation led to Access Denied errors. Some additional moving parts of this fix: - [go-billy](go-git/go-billy#187): Align behaviour supporting dir.NewObject(): - Add support for Chmod in polyfill so that ChrootOS is able to chmod files. - Ensure temporary directories are created for BoundOS to avoid errors when trying to create the temporary file used for loose files. - This PR: - Ensure that in Windows, packed and loose object files are created as read-only, which in this case means setting the flag windows.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY via x/sys/windows. - Skip renaming the temporary file into the existing loose object, instead simply delete the temporary file.

A maliciously crafted index file can trigger an out-of-bounds slice operation, resulting in a runtime panic during normal index parsing. This issue only affects Git index format version 4. Earlier formats (`go-git` supports only `v2` and `v3`) are not vulnerable to this issue. An attacker able to supply a crafted `.git/index` file can cause applications using go-git to panic while reading the index. If the application does not recover from panics, this results in process termination, leading to a denial-of-service (DoS) condition. Exploitation requires the ability to modify or inject a Git index file within the local repository in disk. This typically implies write access to the `.git` directory. ##### Patches Users should upgrade to `v5.17.1`, or the latest `v6` [pseudo-version](https://go.dev/ref/mod#pseudo-versions), in order to mitigate this vulnerability. ##### Credit go-git maintainers thank @​kq5y for finding and reporting this issue privately to the `go-git` project. #### Severity - CVSS Score: 2.8 / 10 (Low) - Vector String: `CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L` #### References - [https://github.com/go-git/go-git/security/advisories/GHSA-gm2x-2g9h-ccm8](https://github.com/go-git/go-git/security/advisories/GHSA-gm2x-2g9h-ccm8) - [https://github.com/go-git/go-git](https://github.com/go-git/go-git) This data is provided by [OSV](https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-gm2x-2g9h-ccm8) and the [GitHub Advisory Database](https://github.com/github/advisory-database) ([CC-BY 4.0](https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/LICENSE.md)). </details> --- ### go-git: Maliciously crafted idx file can cause asymmetric memory consumption [CVE-2026-34165](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-34165) / [GHSA-jhf3-xxhw-2wpp](GHSA-jhf3-xxhw-2wpp) <details> <summary>More information</summary> #### Details ##### Impact A vulnerability has been identified in which a maliciously crafted `.idx` file can cause asymmetric memory consumption, potentially exhausting available memory and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) condition.
