Synopsis
The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.
Description
This update for git fixes the following issues :
Security issues fixed :
CVE-2019-1349: Fixed issue on Windows, when submodules are cloned recursively, under certain circumstances Git could be fooled into using the same Git directory twice (bsc#1158787).
CVE-2019-19604: Fixed a recursive clone followed by a submodule update could execute code contained within the repository without the user explicitly having asked for that (bsc#1158795).
CVE-2019-1387: Fixed recursive clones that are currently affected by a vulnerability that is caused by too-lax validation of submodule names, allowing very targeted attacks via remote code execution in recursive clones (bsc#1158793).
CVE-2019-1354: Fixed issue on Windows that refuses to write tracked files with filenames that contain backslashes (bsc#1158792).
CVE-2019-1353: Fixed issue when run in the Windows Subsystem for Linux while accessing a working directory on a regular Windows drive, none of the NTFS protections were active (bsc#1158791).
CVE-2019-1352: Fixed issue on Windows was unaware of NTFS Alternate Data Streams (bsc#1158790).
CVE-2019-1351: Fixed issue on Windows mistakes drive letters outside of the US-English alphabet as relative paths (bsc#1158789).
CVE-2019-1350: Fixed incorrect quoting of command-line arguments allowed remote code execution during a recursive clone in conjunction with SSH URLs (bsc#1158788).
CVE-2019-1348: Fixed the --export-marks option of fast-import is exposed also via the in-stream command feature export-marks=... and it allows overwriting arbitrary paths (bsc#1158785).
Fixed an issue where git send-email fails to authenticate with SMTP server (bsc#1082023)
