When an attacker-controlled workflow sets `core.hooksPath` to a directory within the cloned repository containing a Git hook such as `pre-commit`, Git executes that hook during subsequent Git operations. Because Git hooks run as local system commands, this behavior can lead to **arbitrary command execution** on the underlying n8n host.\n\nSuccessful exploitation requires the ability to create or modify an n8n workflow that uses the Git node.\n\nAffected versions: **≥ 0.123.1 and < 1.119.2**\n\n### Patches\n\nThis issue has been patched in **n8n version 1.119.2**.\n\nAll users running affected versions should upgrade to **1.119.2 or later**.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nIf upgrading is not immediately possible, the following mitigations can reduce exposure:\n\n- Exclude the Git node ([Docs](https://n8n-docs.teamlab.info/hosting/securing/blocking-nodes/#exclude-nodes)).\n- Avoid cloning or interacting with untrusted repositories using the Git Node.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2025-12-08T21:30:07+00:00","modifiedAt":"2025-12-09T17:31:40.017214+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"n8n","ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"kind":"introduced","version":"0.123.1"},{"kind":"fixed","version":"1.119.2"}]}],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":null}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS_V4","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H","score":null,"severity":null},{"system":"Publisher rating","vector":null,"score":null,"severity":"CRITICAL"}],"references":["https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/security/advisories/GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq","https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-65964","https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/commit/d5a1171f95f75def5c3ac577707ab913e22aef04","https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n","https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n/releases/tag/n8n%401.119.2","https://n8n-docs.teamlab.info/hosting/securing/blocking-nodes/#exclude-nodes"],"sourceUrl":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq","license":"GitHub Advisory Database · CC-BY-4.0","key":"osv:GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq","identifiers":["GHSA-wpqc-h9wp-chmq","CVE-2025-65964"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
