Prior to 2.0.1 of the argv-parser package, parseEnv omits VISUAL from GitEnvKeys, so prepareEnv drops the value before vulnerabilityCheck can classify it as allowUnsafeEditor. A consuming application that forwards attacker-influenced environment values can therefore allow Git to invoke an attacker-selected editor during operations such as commit amendment or interactive rebase when no higher-priority editor setting overrides VISUAL and Git's terminal prerequisites are met. The executable runs with the privileges of the Node.js process. This issue is fixed in argv-parser 2.0.1.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-09-29T18:46:58.476+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-09-30T19:28:41.888+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"git-js","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"steveukx\",\n                    \"product\": \"git-js\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"< 2.0.1\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":9.2,"severity":"CRITICAL"}],"references":["https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/security/advisories/GHSA-v5rq-49vh-5v5c","https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/pull/1201","https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/commit/68874c239f0c7a87f4a68c3d2c4a0d7c75bb27f4","https://github.com/steveukx/git-js/releases/tag/@simple-git/argv-parser@2.0.1"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-102829","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-102829","identifiers":["CVE-2026-102829"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
