Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains one high risk vulnerability.

1) Untrusted search path

EUVDB-ID: #VU71240

Risk: High

CVSSv4.0: 6.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41953

CWE-ID: CWE-426 - Untrusted Search Path

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure implementation of the Git GUI's Clone function, which automatically searches and  executes the aspell.exe file after cloning the repository. A remote attacker can trick the victim into cloning a malicious repository and execute arbitrary code on the system by including the malicious aspell.exe file into the repository.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
