  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"Santos Gallegos discovered a blind local file inclusion in python-git, a Python library to interact with Git repositories, which could lead to denial of service or potentially information disclosure.

In order to resolve some git references, python-git reads files from the '.git' directory but, due to improper location check, an attacker can pass a file located outside this directory thereby making python-git read arbitrary file on the system.

It remains unclear whether the attacker can gain access to actual file content, but denial of service can be achieved by passing a large or infinite file such as /dev/random.

For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version 2.1.11-1+deb10u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your python-git packages.

For the detailed security status of python-git please refer to its security tracker page at: [link moved to references]

Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: [link moved to references]");
