Google: dev-vcs/git: security update to 18867.199.19

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 452566

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that
 provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. When reading a config value, Git strips
 any trailing carriage return and line feed (CRLF). When writing a config entry, values with a trailing CR
 are not quoted, causing the CR to be lost when the config is later read. When initializing a submodule, if
 the submodule path contains a trailing CR, the altered path is read resulting in the submodule being
 checked out to an incorrect location. If a symlink exists that points the altered path to the submodule
 hooks directory, and the submodule contains an executable post-checkout hook, the script may be
 unintentionally executed after checkout. This vulnerability is fixed in v2.43.7, v2.44.4, v2.45.4,
 v2.46.4, v2.47.3, v2.48.2, v2.49.1, and v2.50.1. (CVE-2025-48384)

Solution

Update the dev-vcs/git library and its related packages to version 18867.199.19 or later.
