Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions VFS for Git version 1.0.21014.1

Description VFS for Git version 1.0.21014.1 contains a security issue in the GVFS.Service Windows service related to an unquoted service path. This allows local attackers to potentially execute code with elevated privileges. The issue arises because the unquoted binary path can be exploited to inject malicious executables. These executables can then be launched with LocalSystem privileges during service startup or system reboot.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
