Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.

1) Integer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU71239

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23521

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when parsing the .gitattributes attributes. A remote attacker can trick the victim into cloning a specially crafted repository and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Mitigation

Update the affected packages:

2) Untrusted search path

EUVDB-ID: #VU62258

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-24765

CWE-ID: CWE-426 - Untrusted Search Path

Exploit availability: No

3) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

EUVDB-ID: #VU65287

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 4.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly impose security restrictions. A remote user can bypass implemented security restrictions and privilege escalation on the system when navigating as root into a shared tmp directory owned by the victim, but where an attacker can create a git repository.

4) Input validation error

EUVDB-ID: #VU68517

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 2.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-39253

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass certain security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to the way Git handles hardlinks when performing a local clone. A remote attacker can trick the victim into clocking a malicious repository and create or copy hardlinks to critical files on the system, which can result in sensitive information exposure.

5) Heap-based buffer overflow

EUVDB-ID: #VU68518

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-39260

CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in the "git shell" command when handling untrusted input. A remote attacker can trick the victim to execute the affected command against a malicious repository, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
