    It was discovered that Git incorrectly handled certain URLs when asking for credentials. An attacker could
    possibly use this issue to mislead the user into typing passwords for trusted sites that would then be
    sent to untrusted sites instead. (CVE-2024-50349)

    It was discovered that git incorrectly handled line endings when using credential helpers.
