Description Moritz Muehlenhoff univentionstaff 2014-12-19 08:45:34 CET
If git is used on a filesystem that is case-insensitive (i.e. NFTS, VFAT or HFS) and if the user is tricked into cloning or accessing a malformed repository, this could lead to an attacker overwriting  the .git/config file, resulting in the execution of arbitrary commands (CVE-2014-9390)

Such filesystems are uncommon in UCS, so low impact.

* "int" is the wrong data type for ... nlen assignment (CVE-2016-2315)
* integer overflow due to a loop which adds more to "len" (CVE-2016-2324)
Comment 2 Arvid Requate univentionstaff 2017-05-23 18:55:54 CEST
UCS 3.2 is out of maintenance and this package is not covered in any of the extended security scenarios.
