Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
BBOT's gitdumper module could be abused to execute commands through a malicious git repository.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The gitdumper module in BBOT (an OSINT/reconnaissance tool) contains a command injection vulnerability that allows arbitrary command execution when processing a malicious git repository. The module likely unsafely handles git repository contents or hooks, enabling an attacker to execute OS commands on the target system.

MitigationAvoid using BBOT's gitdumper module on untrusted or unknown git repositories. Update to the patched version when released. Consider network isolation if processing external repositories is necessary.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify BBOT installation and version
    Run 'bbot --version' or check the installed package via pip with 'pip show bbot' to retrieve the version number
    Affected if The installed version is older than the patched version released for CVE-2025-10283 or cannot be determined to be patched
  2. Verify gitdumper module availability
    Run 'bbot -l' or 'bbot --help-modules' to list available modules and confirm gitdumper is present
    Affected if The gitdumper module is listed as available in your BBOT installation
  3. Check for recent gitdumper executions
    Review command history, logs, or automation scripts that may have invoked bbot with the gitdumper module (e.g., bbot -m gitdumper)
    Affected if Gitdumper was run against any git repository, especially untrusted or externally-sourced repositories
  4. Inspect gitdumper module configuration
    Check BBOT configuration files (bbot.yml, .bbot.yml in home or project directory) for gitdumper settings or any custom hooks
    Affected if Gitdumper is enabled in configuration or custom git hooks are defined that could be manipulated
  5. Review processed repository sources
    Audit any git repositories that were processed by the gitdumper module, checking for unexpected scripts in .git/hooks or unusual commit references
    Affected if Repositories processed were from untrusted sources or contain unexpected modifications to git hook files

You are affected if BBOT with the gitdumper module is installed and was used to process any git repository, particularly from untrusted sources, before applying the vendor-patched version.
