CVE-2026-110767 – Arbitrary File Read via Symlink Following – Gitingest ≤ 0.3.1

Be the first to know when new zero-days emerge:

Summary

CVE-2026-110767 is an improper link resolution (symlink following, CWE-59) vulnerability in Gitingest, the coderamp-labs PyPI package gitingest. It affects versions up to and including 0.3.1. It allows unauthenticated remote attackers to read files from the server hosting the service. The CVSS v4.0 score is 8.7 (High).

Technical details

  • Root cause: Single-file blob ingestion in ingest_query follows symbolic links. It does not confirm that the resolved target stays inside the cloned repository.
  • Trigger conditions: An attacker commits a symlink to a public repository and submits that symlink’s blob URL to a Gitingest instance. No authentication or user interaction is required.
  • Attack vector: Network. The attacker only needs access to the Gitingest service, for example a web-exposed instance.
  • Impact: Confidentiality loss. The attacker can retrieve files readable by the service user, up to 10 MB in size. Integrity and availability are not affected.

Affected software

  • Gitingest (coderamp-labs, PyPI gitingest) version 0.3.1 and earlier

Severity

  • CVSS v4.0: 8.7 (High), CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
  • CVSS v3.1: 7.5 (High), CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N

Mitigation and recommended actions

  • Immediate: The CVE record does not name a fixed version. Monitor the official Gitingest repository and the VulnCheck advisory for a patched release, and upgrade to a version later than 0.3.1 once one is available.
  • If no patch is available:
    • Restrict network access to Gitingest instances, or take publicly exposed instances offline until a fix is released.
    • Run the service as a low-privilege user that cannot read secrets, credentials or other sensitive files, and isolate it in a container or sandbox.
    • Review logs for blob URL ingestion requests that target repositories you do not recognize.

How IONIX’s External Exposure Management Platform Detects and Validates
Zero-Days to Shrink MTTR

1

Map your entire attack surface (continously)

IONIX uses multi-factor discovery methods, including DNS analysis, certificate mapping, metadata inspection, and more, to automatically map every internet-facing asset across your environment. This includes cloud instances, third-party platforms, shadow IT, and even forgotten infrastructure that traditional tools miss.

2

Monitor for new CVEs

Dozens of threat intel feeds using agentic technology are continuously analyzed to detect the appearance of proof-of-concept code, exploit kits, and indicators of active targeting. IONIX goes further by applying AI to proactively evaluate whether emerging vulnerabilities are likely to be exploited, even before PoCs go public.

3

Identify Potential External Exposures

Not all CVEs matter. IONIX filters vulnerabilities by asking attacker-centric questions: Can it be reached from the internet? Does it require authentication? Is it being exploited in the wild? This dramatically reduces noise and focuses teams on threats that can actually be weaponized.

4

Create Safe, Scalable Exploit Validations

IONIX transforms real-world PoCs into safe, non-intrusive test payloads that can be run in production environments without disruption. These simulations are precisely targeted to the systems that are vulnerable, ensuring rapid validation without unnecessary load.

5

Execute Exploit Validations

By combining context about software stack, versioning, exposure status, and reachability, IONIX ensures that only the right payloads are executed against the right assets, maximizing efficiency and minimizing risk.

6

Drive Fast and Actionable Remediation

Results are routed through integrations with ticketing, SOAR, and SIEM tools. Issues are written in plain language, bundled into remediation clusters, and prioritized based on asset criticality, exploitability, and blast radius. This shortens mean time to remediation (MTTR) and empowers teams to act with confidence.
