CVE-2022-25912 is a remote code execution vulnerability in the Node.js package simple-git affecting versions before 3.15.0. The issue is triggered when Git’s ext transport protocol can be enabled during operations such as clone(). According to the provided context, attackers can use Git runtime configuration overrides via the -c flag to set protocol.ext.allow=always, thereby activating the ext:: remote helper protocol. Because simple-git passes attacker-controlled arguments to the underlying git binary, a malicious clone source combined with this configuration can cause Git to invoke shell commands through the ext:: mechanism. The context also states this was an incomplete fix path related to CVE-2022-24066.
