CVE-2026-48827 — Apache MINA SSHD sshd-git Path Traversal Info Disclosure

Mon, 01 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

1. Overview

A path traversal vulnerability exists in the Apache MINA SSHD sshd-git module, which provides Git-over-SSH server functionality. The module fails to validate user-supplied repository paths for directory traversal sequences when handling git-upload-pack and git-receive-pack commands. An SSH-authenticated attacker can supply paths containing ../ to escape the configured Git root directory and access arbitrary Git repositories on the server filesystem, exfiltrating source code, configuration, and secrets. The vulnerability also permits unauthorized writes to repositories via git-receive-pack (push). Apache addressed this vulnerability in MINA SSHD 2.18.0 and 3.0.0-M4, released May 2026.
