Public vulnerability disclosure

CVE-2026-84503

Ansible-core: ansible-core: ansible.builtin.git invokes git without a `--` separator, allowing argument injection via a `-`-leading repository url (e.g. --upload-pack) -> rce

publishedCWE-88

A flaw was found in ansible-core's ansible.builtin.git module. The module invokes git (ls-remote, clone, fetch) with the repository URL as a positional argument and without a "--" separator, so a repository URL that begins with a dash is interpreted by git as a command-line option. A caller that passes an attacker-controlled repository URL to the module can trigger argument injection (for example --upload-pack/--exec), resulting in arbitrary command execution on the host running the module.
