prior to 2.6.5. It is, therefore, affected by a command execution
vulnerability when processing specially crafted git trees in a
case-insensitive or case-normalizing file system. A remote attacker,
using a specially crafted git tree, can overwrite a user's
'.git/config' file when the user clones or checks out a repository,
allowing arbitrary command execution.");
