CVE: CVE-2023-5752
Alias: PYSEC-2023-228
CVSS_V3: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N

Description

When installing a package from a Mercurial VCS URL, e.g. `pip install hg+...`, with pip prior to v23.3, the specified Mercurial revision could be used to inject arbitrary configuration options to the `hg clone` call (e.g. `--config`). Controlling the Mercurial configuration can modify how and which repository is installed. This vulnerability does not affect users who aren't installing from Mercurial.
