fedora
Calendar Grey February 20, 2024
Dist Fedora Esm H88
A critical patch for Rust-Pore has been released, targeting memory corruption vulnerabilities and potential execution threats within Libgit2, specifically designed for Fedora 39.
Update the git2 crate to version 0.18.2

Summary

A performance oriented reimplementation of repo.

Update Information:

Update the git2 crate to version 0.18.2. Update the libgit2-sys crate to version 0.16.2. Version 0.16.2 of the libgit2-sys crate includes an update of the bundled copy of libgit2 to version 1.7.2 to address CVE-2024-24575 and CVE-2024-24577. Since the libgit2 bindings cause applications that use them to statically link libgit2, this update also includes rebuilds of all affected applications.
