Echo: git: security update to 1:2.39.5-0+deb12u2

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 461326

Description

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

- The --mirror documentation for Git through 2.35.1 does not mention the availability of deleted content,
aka the "GitBleed" issue. This could present a security risk if information-disclosure auditing processes
rely on a clone operation without the --mirror option. Note: This has been disputed by multiple 3rd
parties who believe this is an intended feature of the git binary and does not pose a security risk.
(CVE-2022-24975)

Solution

Update the git library and its related packages to version 1:2.39.5-0+deb12u2 or later.
