I doubt it. This is just normal Windows behavior. If you call out to a shell and have it run a
`git` command the system has to decide where the git binary is. A quirk of Windows is that first it searches the current directory for a `git` executable, and then it searches directories defined in PATH. If there's an executable git.exe in the current dir, that gets ran. I assume Cursor's behavior is the same across platforms but this is only a Windows vuln
because Windows picks binaries in the current directory before PATH. A Windows
user purely using the CMD shell, not Cursor, that checked out a malicious repo, went to that repo, and then ran any `git` command in that repo could be hacked the same way. |
