The remote Fedora 38 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2024-a7a3c8ccdd advisory. libgit2 is a portable C implementation of the Git core methods provided as a linkable library with a solid API, allowing to build Git functionality into your application. Using well-crafted inputs to git_index_add can cause heap corruption that could be leveraged for arbitrary code execution. There is an issue in the has_dir_name function in src/libgit2/index.c, which frees an entry that should not be freed. The freed entry is later used and overwritten with potentially bad actor-controlled data leading to controlled heap corruption. Depending on the application that uses libgit2, this could lead to arbitrary code execution. This issue has been patched in version 1.6.5 and 1.7.2. (CVE-2024-24577) libgit2 is a portable C implementation of the Git core methods provided as a linkable library with a solid API, allowing to build Git functionality into your application. Using well-crafted inputs to git_revparse_single can cause the function to enter an infinite loop, potentially causing a Denial of Service attack in the calling application. The revparse function in src/libgit2/revparse.c uses a loop to parse the user-provided spec string. There is an edge-case during parsing that allows a bad actor to force the loop conditions to access arbitrary memory. Potentially, this could also…Read More
