Package : git Version : 1:2.20.1-2+deb10u9 CVE ID : CVE-2019-1387 CVE-2023-25652 CVE-2023-25815 CVE-2023-29007 CVE-2024-32002 CVE-2024-32004 CVE-2024-32021 CVE-2024-32465 Debian Bug : 1034835 1071160

Multiple vulnerabilities were found in git, a fast, scalable and distributed revision control system.

CVE-2019-1387

It was possible to bypass the previous check for this vulnerability using parallel cloning, or the --recurse-submodules option to git-checkout(1).

CVE-2023-25652

Feeding specially-crafted input to 'git apply --reject' could overwrite a path outside the working tree with partially controlled contents, corresponding to the rejected hunk or hunks from the given patch.

CVE-2023-25815

Low-privileged users could inject malicious messages into Git's output under MINGW.

CVE-2023-29007

A specially-crafted .gitmodules file with submodule URLs longer than 1024 characters could be used to inject arbitrary configuration into $GIT_DIR/config.

CVE-2024-32002

Repositories with submodules could be specially-crafted to write hooks into .git/ which would then be executed during an ongoing clone operation.

CVE-2024-32004

A specially-crafted local repository could cause the execution of arbitrary code when cloned by another user.

CVE-2024-32021

When cloning a local repository that contains symlinks via the filesystem, Git could have created hardlinks to arbitrary user-readable files on the same filesystem as the target repository in the objects/ directory.

CVE-2024-32465

When cloning a local repository obtained from a downloaded archive, hooks in that repository could be used for arbitrary code execution.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 1:2.20.1-2+deb10u9.

We recommend that you upgrade your git packages.
