Gitoxide gix-pack before 0.75.0 contains an uncontrolled memory allocation vulnerability that allows remote attackers to abort the process by supplying a huge pack-header object count. Malicious remotes can serve a 12-byte pack header claiming 0xFFFFFFFF objects, forcing Tree::with_capacity to reserve hundreds of gigabytes and crash clone or fetch operations.

The remote openSUSE 16 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2026:22204-1 advisory.

    Changes in stgit:

    - Update to version 2.7.0:
      * Allow unambiguous command shorthands, opt-in with         `stgit.infer-commands`.
      * Accept git approxidate spellings for dates, e.g. 2 days ago         and @<epoch>; relative dates are now anchored in the local         time zone.
      * Run `git mergetool` for `stg push` with `stgit.autoimerge`.
      * Reject @ as a branch name for `stg branch --create`.
      * Bump gix to 0.89 and MSRV to 1.88.
      * CVE-2026-91986: gix-transport CR/LF/NUL injection into         git-daemon connect request via crafted git URL path         (boo#1281742).
      * CVE-2026-109349, CVE-2026-109350, CVE-2026-109351:
        gix-pack denial of service via pack version 3 header,         ofs-delta base distance and pack header object count         (boo#1285176).

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

    Changes in grok-build:

    - CVE-2026-109349: gix-pack pack version 3 header assertion       failure (boo#1285155)
    - CVE-2026-109350: gix-pack ofs-delta base-distance handling       flaw (boo#1285155)
    - CVE-2026-109351: gix-pack header object-count denial of       service (boo#1285155)
    - Refresh vendored Rust dependencies (gix 0.83.0 -> 0.88.0,       gix-pack 0.70.0 -> 0.75.0, gix-status 0.30.0 -> 0.35.0);
      re-audited licences (913 external crates in the shipped       graph, 1247 vendored); licence set unchanged
    - adapt xai-fast-worktree to the gix 0.88 API (anyhow Context bound, from_bstr signature)
