GHSA-7x36-8jrh-v4pw: a copied repo’s .git/config could run code on the host before any prompt (fixed v2026.9.7). GHSA-7x36-8jrh-v4pw: a copied repo’s .git/config could run code on the host before any prompt (fixed v2026.9.7)

Channel: tagged-release. Half: defect. Date: commit 2026-09-02; tagged 2026-09-07.

Operator consequence: Every tag through v2026.8.31 is exposed. Upgrade to v2026.9.7 or later before opening Hermes in any directory you did not create or clone yourself. Project-skill trust (hermes skills trust) never gated this path; the exposure was pre-trust.
