… potentially unsafe operations. Snyk recognised a potential vulnerability caused by passing unsanitised user data into commands that operate on a git remote (eg `clone`, `fetch`, `pull` and `push` etc) whereby an inline configuration argument could be used to enable the `ext::` protocol to switch out the remote for an arbitrary named binary run on the host machine. While this highlights the need to sanitise user input in the application that consumes it before passing it through to any library, `simple-git` will now limit the use of these options unless the developer explicitly opts in to them with a new `allowUnsafeProtocolOverride` option.
