Alpine: git: security update to 2.11.3-r1

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 404597

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- In Git before 2.13.7, 2.14.x before 2.14.4, 2.15.x before 2.15.2, 2.16.x before 2.16.4, and 2.17.x before
2.17.1, code to sanity-check pathnames on NTFS can result in reading out-of-bounds memory.
(CVE-2018-11233)

- In Git before 2.13.7, 2.14.x before 2.14.4, 2.15.x before 2.15.2, 2.16.x before 2.16.4, and 2.17.x before
2.17.1, remote code execution can occur. With a crafted .gitmodules file, a malicious project can execute
an arbitrary script on a machine that runs "git clone --recurse-submodules" because submodule "names" are
obtained from this file, and then appended to $GIT_DIR/modules, leading to directory traversal with "../"
in a name. Finally, post-checkout hooks from a submodule are executed, bypassing the intended design in
which hooks are not obtained from a remote server. (CVE-2018-11235)
