high Nessus Plugin ID 170322

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for rh-git218-git.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:0002 advisory.

- git: Arbitrary path overwriting via export-marks in-stream command feature (CVE-2019-1348)

- git: Recursive submodule cloning allows using git directory twice with synonymous directory name written in .git/ (CVE-2019-1349)

- git: Files inside the .git directory may be overwritten during cloning via NTFS Alternate Data Streams (CVE-2019-1352)

- git: Remote code execution in recursive clones with nested submodules (CVE-2019-1387)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the RHEL rh-git218-git package based on the guidance in RHSA-2020:0002.
