These releases are about hardening `git shell` that is used on servers against an unsafe user input, which `git cvsserver` copes with poorly. From the release notes: * "git cvsserver" no longer is invoked by "git shell" by default, as it is old and largely unmaintained. * Various Perl scripts did not use safe_pipe_capture() instead of backticks, leaving them susceptible to. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2017-655f0d38c3 2017-09-30 05:57:53.288028 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Name : git Product : Fedora 27 Version : 2.14.2 Release : 2.fc27 URL : https://git-scm.com/ Summary : Fast Version Control System Description : Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. The git rpm installs common set of tools which are usually using with small amount of dependencies.

From the release notes: * "git cvsserver" no longer is invoked by "git shell" by default, as it is old and largely unmaintained. * Various Perl scripts did not use safe_pipe_capture() instead of backticks, leaving them susceptible to end-user input. They have been corrected. Credits go to joernchen for finding the unsafe constructs in "git cvsserver", and to Jeff King at GitHub for finding and fixing instances of the same issue in other scripts.
