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.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.\n\n## Package advisory (CVE-2026-102829)\n\nAffected packages:\n\n- `@simple-git/argv-parser < 2.0.1`\n\nPatched in:\n\n- `@simple-git/argv-parser 2.0.1`\n\nSource: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-v5rq-49vh-5v5c","depth":"abyssal","depthScore":63,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":50.6,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":12,"ransomware":0},"changes":[{"seq":213935,"id":"CVE-2026-102829","ts":1790799886654,"field":"exploit_available","old":"false","new":"true"}]}
