Package : ruby-git Version : 1.2.8-1+deb10u1 CVE ID : CVE-2022-25648 CVE-2022-46648 CVE-2022-47318 Debian Bug : 1009926

A couple of vulnerabilities were reported against ruby-git, a Ruby interface to the Git revision control system, that could lead to a command injection and execution of an arbitrary ruby code by having a user to load a repository containing a specially crafted filename to the product.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 1.2.8-1+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your ruby-git packages.

For the detailed security status of ruby-git please refer to its security tracker page at:
