Background ========== Git is a distributed version control system. Affected packages ================= -------------------------------------------------------------------= Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected -------------------------------------------------------------------= 1 dev-util/git < 1.5.6.4 >=3D 1.5.6.= 4 Description =========== Multiple boundary errors in the functions diff_addremove() and diff_change() when processing overly long repository path names were reported. Impact ====== A remote attacker could entice a user to run commands like "git-diff" or "git-grep" on a specially crafted repository, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All Git users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=3Ddev-util/git-1.5.6.4" References ========== [ 1 ] CVE-2008-3546 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=3DCVE-2008-3546 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200809-16.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
