Red Hat Security Advisory
Synopsis: Moderate: git security and bug fix update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2017:2004-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2004
Issue date: 2017-08-01
CVE Names: CVE-2014-9938 CVE-2017-8386
=====================================================================
1. Summary:
An update for git is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

3. Description:
Git is a distributed revision control system with a decentralized
architecture. As opposed to centralized version control systems with a
client-server model, Git ensures that each working copy of a Git repository
is an exact copy with complete revision history. This not only allows the
user to work on and contribute to projects without the need to have
permission to push the changes to their official repositories, but also
makes it possible for the user to work with no network connection.
Security Fix(es):
* It was found that the git-prompt.sh script shipped with git failed to
correctly handle branch names containing special characters. A specially
crafted git repository could use this flaw to execute arbitrary commands if
a user working with the repository configured their shell to include
repository information in the prompt. (CVE-2014-9938)
* A flaw was found in the way git-shell handled command-line options for
the restricted set of git-shell commands. A remote, authenticated attacker
could use this flaw to bypass git-shell restrictions, to view and
manipulate files, by abusing the instance of the less command launched
using crafted command-line options. (CVE-2017-8386)
Additional Changes:
For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 7.4 Release Notes linked from the References section.
