-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] git (SSA:2021-070-01) 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-2.17.6-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes a security issue: On case-insensitive file systems with support for symbolic links, if Git is configured globally to apply delay-capable clean/smudge filters (such as Git LFS), Git could be fooled into running remote code during a clone. Credit for finding and fixing this vulnerability goes to Matheus Tavares, helped by Johannes Schindelin. For more information, see: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-21300 (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Where to find the new packages: +-----------------------------+ Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab (https://osuosl.org) for donating FTP and rsync hosting to the Slackware project! :-) Also see the "Get Slack" section on https://slackware.com for additional mirror sites near you.
