An exposed .git directory on a dev vhost is dumped to recover a Ghost CMS admin password from a committed change. Ghost 5.58.0 is vulnerable to CVE-2023-40028, an authenticated symlink arbitrary file read, used to read the Ghost config and recover bob's SSH password. bob may run a symlink-cleaning script as root that reads a file after a vulnerable check; a TOCTOU race swaps the symlink target to root's SSH key, leaking it for a root login.
