This security bulletin contains one high risk vulnerability.
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
DescriptionThe 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.
Install updates from vendor's repository.
