Title:	Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2018-152-01)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'git' package(s) announced via the SSA:2018-152-01 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'git' package(s) announced via the SSA:2018-152-01 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New git packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/git-2.14.4-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes security issues: Submodule 'names' come from the untrusted .gitmodules file, but we blindly append them to $GIT_DIR/modules to create our on-disk repo paths. This means you can do bad things by putting '../' into the name. We now enforce some rules for submodule names which will cause Git to ignore these malicious names (CVE-2018-11235). Credit for finding this vulnerability and the proof of concept from which the test script was adapted goes to Etienne Stalmans. It was possible to trick the code that sanity-checks paths on NTFS into reading random piece of memory (CVE-2018-11233). Credit for fixing for these bugs goes to Jeff King, Johannes Schindelin and others.

Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
