CVE-2026-123532 and is rated Medium severity with a CVSS score of 6.5. It is not in the current CISA KEV record we collected. That does not prove exploitation has not occurred.
Release Notes
gix-fs in gitoxide before 0.24.1 contains a credential disclosure vulnerability that allows remote attackers to capture NTLM credentials by supplying UNC symlink targets in a crafted repository. When a victim checks out the repository on Windows with symlinks enabled, gix_fs::symlink::create calls is_dir() on the UNC target, triggering SMB authentication that leaks the username, domain, and NTLMv2 hash.
