New git packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to
fix a security issue.
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
patches/packages/git-2.17.5-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a security issue:
With a crafted URL that contains a newline or empty host, or lacks
a scheme, the credential helper machinery can be fooled into
providing credential information that is not appropriate for the
protocol in use and host being contacted.
Unlike the vulnerability CVE-2020-5260 fixed in v2.17.4, the
credentials are not for a host of the attacker’s choosing; instead,
they are for some unspecified host (based on how the configured
credential helper handles an absent “host” parameter).
For more information, see:
https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2020-11008
(* Security fix *)
Where to find the new packages:
Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
(http://osuosl.org) for donating FTP and rsync hosting
