CVSS v2.0

9.3

High

VectorAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Git versions prior to 2.20.2 Git versions 2.21.x prior to 2.21.1 Git versions 2.22.x prior to 2.22.2 Git versions 2.23.x prior to 2.23.1 Git versions 2.24.x prior to 2.24.1
Description The issue allows for arbitrary command execution because a "git submodule update" operation can run commands found in the .gitmodules file of a malicious repository. This can enable a remote attacker to access confidential data, compromise data integrity, and cause a denial of service.

For Git versions 2.22.x prior to 2.22.2, update to version 2.22.2 or later. For Git versions 2.23.x prior to 2.23.1, update to version 2.23.1 or later.
