"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2023:0017 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

      CVE-2022-23521:
      Git is distributed revision control system. gitattributes are a mechanism to allow defining attributes
    for paths. These attributes can be defined by adding a `.gitattributes` file to the repository, which
    contains a set of file patterns and the attributes that should be set for paths matching this pattern.
    When parsing gitattributes, multiple integer overflows can occur when there is a huge number of path
    patterns, a huge number of attributes for a single pattern, or when the declared attribute names are huge.
    These overflows can be triggered via a crafted `.gitattributes` file that may be part of the commit
    history. Git silently splits lines longer than 2KB when parsing gitattributes from a file, but not when
    parsing them from the index. Consequentially, the failure mode depends on whether the file exists in the
    working tree, the index or both. This integer overflow can result in arbitrary heap reads and writes,
    which may result in remote code execution. The problem has been patched in the versions published on
    2023-01-17, going back to v2.30.7. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this
    issue.

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

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
