Category:Huawei EulerOS Local Security Checks
Title:Huawei EulerOS: Security Advisory for libgit2 (EulerOS-SA-2024-2477)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'libgit2' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2024-2477 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'libgit2' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2024-2477 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
libgit2 is a portable C implementation of the Git core methods provided as a linkable library with a solid API, allowing to build Git functionality into your application. Using well-crafted inputs to `git_index_add` can cause heap corruption that could be leveraged for arbitrary code execution. There is an issue in the `has_dir_name` function in `src/libgit2/index.c`, which frees an entry that should not be freed. The freed entry is later used and overwritten with potentially bad actor-controlled data leading to controlled heap corruption. Depending on the application that uses libgit2, this could lead to arbitrary code execution. This issue has been patched in version 1.6.5 and 1.7.2.(CVE-2024-24577)

Affected Software/OS:
'libgit2' package(s) on Huawei EulerOS V2.0SP8.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
