 Package : git CVE ID : CVE-2024-50349 CVE-2024-52006 Debian Bug : 1093042

 Multiple issues were found in Git, a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system, which may result in leaking credential information to an unintended host.

 For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 1:2.39.5-0+deb12u2.

 We recommend that you upgrade your git packages.
