Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.2.2021.2887
Category:Huawei EulerOS Local Security Checks
Title:Huawei EulerOS: Security Advisory for git (EulerOS-SA-2021-2887)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'git' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2021-2887 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'git' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2021-2887 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Git is an open-source distributed revision control system. In affected versions of Git a specially crafted repository that contains symbolic links as well as files using a clean/smudge filter such as Git LFS, may cause just-checked out script to be executed while cloning onto a case-insensitive file system such as NTFS, HFS+ or APFS (i.e. the default file systems on Windows and macOS). Note that clean/smudge filters have to be configured for that. Git for Windows configures Git LFS by default, and is therefore vulnerable. The problem has been patched in the versions published on Tuesday, March 9th, 2021. As a workaround, if symbolic link support is disabled in Git (e.g. via `git config --global core.symlinks false`), the described attack won't work. Likewise, if no clean/smudge filters such as Git LFS are configured globally (i.e. _before_ cloning), the attack is foiled. As always, it is best to avoid cloning repositories from untrusted sources. The earliest impacted version is 2.14.2. The fix versions are: 2.30.1, 2.29.3, 2.28.1, 2.27.1, 2.26.3, 2.25.5, 2.24.4, 2.23.4, 2.22.5, 2.21.4, 2.20.5, 2.19.6, 2.18.5, 2.17.62.17.6.(CVE-2021-21300)

Affected Software/OS:
'git' package(s) on Huawei EulerOS Virtualization 3.0.2.6.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
