CVE-2024-32002 — Git's recursive clones on case-insensitive filesystems that support symlinks are susceptible to Remote Code Execution

Affected: git

Git is a revision control system. Prior to versions 2.45.1, 2.44.1, 2.43.4, 2.42.2, 2.41.1, 2.40.2, and 2.39.4, repositories with submodules can be crafted in a way that exploits a bug in Git whereby it can be fooled into writing files not into the submodule's worktree but into a `.git/` directory. This allows writing a hook that will be executed while the clone operation is still running, giving the user no opportunity to inspect the code that is being executed. The problem has been patched in versions 2.45.1, 2.44.1, 2.43.4, 2.42.2, 2.41.1, 2.40.2, and 2.39.4. If symbolic link support is disabled in Git (e.g. via `git config --global core.symlinks false`), the described attack won't work. As always, it is best to avoid cloning repositories from untrusted sources.

Affected: Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: git, Ubuntu:22.04:LTS: git, Ubuntu:24.04:LTS: git

It was discovered that Git incorrectly handled certain submodules. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. This issue was fixed in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 23.10 and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-32002)

It was discovered that Git incorrectly handled certain cloned repositories. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-32004)

It was discovered that Git incorrectly handled local clones with hardlinked files/directories. An attacker could possibly use this issue to place a specialized repository on their target's local system. (CVE-2024-32020)

It was discovered that Git incorrectly handled certain symlinks. An attacker could possibly use this issue to impact availability and integrity creating hardlinked arbitrary files into users repository's objects/directory. (CVE-2024-32021)

It was discovered that Git incorrectly handled certain cloned repositories. An attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-32465)
