    descriptionThe version of Atlassian SourceTree installed on the remote Windows host is version 1.2 prior to 3.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities. - An option injection vulnerability exists in the git submodule component. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this via the processing of a recursive git clone of a project with a specially crafted .gitmodules file, to execute arbitrary commands. (CVE-2018-17456) - An argument injection vulnerability exists in the Mercurial repository component. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this via filenames in the Mercurial repositories to execute arbitrary commands. (CVE-2018-20234, CVE-2018-20235) - A command injection vulnerability exists in the URI handling component. An unauthenticated, remote attacker could exploit this via sending a malicious URI to a victim to execution arbitrary commands. (CVE-2018-20236) Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application
