[slackware-security]  git (SSA:2024-136-02)

New git packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to
fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/git-2.39.4-i586-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes security issues:
  Recursive clones on case-insensitive filesystems that support symbolic
  links are susceptible to case confusion that can be exploited to
  execute just-cloned code during the clone operation.
  Repositories can be configured to execute arbitrary code during local
  clones. To address this, the ownership checks introduced in v2.30.3
  are now extended to cover cloning local repositories.
  Local clones may end up hardlinking files into the target repository's
  object database when source and target repository reside on the same
  disk. If the source repository is owned by a different user, then
  those hardlinked files may be rewritten at any point in time by the
  untrusted user.
  When cloning a local source repository that contains symlinks via the
  filesystem, Git may create hardlinks to arbitrary user-readable files
  on the same filesystem as the target repository in the objects/
  directory.
  It is supposed to be safe to clone untrusted repositories, even those
  unpacked from zip archives or tarballs originating from untrusted
  sources, but Git can be tricked to run arbitrary code as part of the
  clone.
