<background>
<p>Git is a free and open source distributed version control system
designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with
speed and efficiency.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>Git is vulnerable to the remote execution of arbitrary code by cloning
repositories with large filenames or a large number of nested trees.
Additionally, some protocols within Git, such as git-remote-ext, can
execute arbitrary code found within URLs. These URLs that submodules use
may come from arbitrary sources (e.g., .gitmodules files in a remote
repository), and can effect those who enable recursive fetch. Restrict
the allowed protocols to well known and safe ones.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>Remote attackers could execute arbitrary code on both client and server.</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All Git users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-vcs/git-2.7.3-r1"
</code>
</resolution>
