Insight

Insight

A flaw was found in the way the git-remote-ext helper processed certain URLs. If a user had Git configured to automatically clone submodules from untrusted repositories, an attacker could inject commands into the URL of a submodule, allowing them to execute arbitrary code on the user's system.

Solution

Solution

Run yum update git to update your system.
