Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-12900)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the BZ2_decompress() function in decompress.c. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted archive, trick the victim into opening it using the affected library, trigger out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

2) Improper neutralization of argument delimiters in a command (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-21613)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when handling URL field in arguments passed to the git-upload-pack command. A remote attacker can trick the victim into passing a specially crafted URL as a flag to the affected command and manipulate arguments for the git-upload-pack command, which can result in information disclosure.


3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-21614)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when handling responses from a malicious Git server. A remote attacker can trick the victim into connecting to a malicious Git server and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-24928)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the xmlSnprintfElements() function in valid.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted XML data to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


5) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-9047)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists in the xmlSnprintfElementContent function of XMLSoft libxml2 due to improper memory handling by the valid.c source code. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted XML file, trigger memory corruption and cause the service to crash.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in denial of service.
