Fedora 45 : libgit2_1.9 / rust-libgit2-sys (2026-7c3fc14617)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 329273

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 45 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2026-7c3fc14617 advisory.

 - Update libgit2 to version 1.9.6.
 - Update the libgit2-sys Rust crate to the corresponding version 0.18.7.

 This includes fixes for various security issues, including - but not limited to:

 - [CVE-2026-53583](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/security/advisories/GHSA-h7gc-w2gg-p9xp)
 - [CVE-2026-53584](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/security/advisories/GHSA-cw77-j82w-mchm)
 - [CVE-2026-53585](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/security/advisories/GHSA-27m5-gxxh-x79j)
 - [CVE-2026-53586](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/security/advisories/GHSA-2889-x8f6-mc4x)
 - [CVE-2026-53587](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/security/advisories/GHSA-pm24-4jhq-3xvm)

 The Fedora package is not affected by [GHSA- wfx7-g85r-q6vw](https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/security/advisories/GHSA-h7gc-w2gg-p9xp) since Fedora packages always linked the system PCRE2 and did not use the bundled PCRE.


Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

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 affected libgit2_1.9 and / or rust-libgit2-sys packages.
