Alpine: git: security update to 0
high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 404595
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:- Cygwin Git is a patch set for the git command line tool for the cygwin environment. A specially crafted
repository that contains symbolic links as well as files with backslash characters in the file name may
cause just-checked out code to be executed while checking out a repository using Git on Cygwin. The
problem will be patched in the Cygwin Git v2.31.1-2 release. At time of writing, the vulnerability is
present in the upstream Git source code; any Cygwin user who compiles Git for themselves from upstream
sources should manually apply a patch to mitigate the vulnerability. As mitigation users should not clone
or pull from repositories from untrusted sources. CVE-2019-1354 was an equivalent vulnerability in Git for
Visual Studio. (CVE-2021-29468)
- In Git for windows through 2.34.1 when using git pull to update the local warehouse, git.cmd can be run
directly. (CVE-2021-46101)
