Summary
n8n before 1.123.69 (and 2.x before 2.33.4 / 2.34.1) contains a code execution vulnerability in the Git node. The Git node executed certain repository-local git configuration values without neutralizing them, so any subsequent Git node operation against a repository containing a malicious value would execute it as the n8n process user. This is not reachable through the Git node's own configuration controls and requires a separate file-write vulnerability elsewhere to plant the malicious value.
Patch / fix
- npm n8n >= 1.123.69, >= 2.33.4, >= 2.34.1
- n8n-io n8n 1.123.69, 2.33.4, 2.34.1

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
The maintainers of n8n-io/n8n published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
