Echo: git: security update to 2.48.1

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 461481

Description

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

 - Git is a source code management tool. When cloning from a server (or fetching, or pushing), informational
 or error messages are transported from the remote Git process to the client via the so-called "sideband
 channel". These messages will be prefixed with "remote:" and printed directly to the standard error
 output. Typically, this standard error output is connected to a terminal that understands ANSI escape
 sequences, which Git did not protect against. Most modern terminals support control sequences that can be
 used by a malicious actor to hide and misrepresent information, or to mislead the user into executing
 untrusted scripts. As requested on the git-security mailing list, the patches are under discussion on the
 public mailing list. Users are advised to update as soon as possible. Users unable to upgrade should avoid
 recursive clones unless they are from trusted sources. (CVE-2024-52005)

Solution

Update the git library and its related packages to version 2.48.1 or later.
