"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the RHSA-2025:11686 advisory.

    Git is a distributed revision control system with a decentralized architecture. As opposed to centralized
    version control systems with a client-server model, Git ensures that each working copy of a Git repository
    is an exact copy with complete revision history. This not only allows the user to work on and contribute
    to projects without the need to have permission to push the changes to their official repositories, but
    also makes it possible for the user to work with no network connection.

    Security Fix(es):

    * git: Git arbitrary code execution (CVE-2025-48384)

    * git: Git arbitrary file writes (CVE-2025-48385)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and
    other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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