GitPython before 3.1.57 Arbitrary File Read via Repo.archive()

Type: advisorySource: Official CVE List1 source record

GitPython before 3.1.57 contains an incomplete denylist in the unsafe_git_archive_options guard that omits --add-file and --add-virtual-file options. Attackers can supply these options to Repo.archive() to read arbitrary files from the filesystem and include them in the returned archive.
