About this tag
This tag covers security vulnerabilities found in Git, the widely used version control system. Discussions include multiple CVEs such as CVE-2024-32021 and CVE-2024-32020, which involve local clone hardlink risks that can allow unauthorized file access or modification. CVE-2024-32465 addresses attacks via untrusted archives containing a .git directory. CVE-2025-48384 and CVE-2025-48385 cover protocol injection and symlink manipulation issues, with implications for Windows environments and Visual Studio. CVE-2025-46835 highlights risks in Git GUI tools. The tag also references CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog and Microsoft's Azure Linux attestations. These threads provide technical analysis, patch guidance, and mitigation strategies for IT teams and developers.
The short answer is: no, Azure Linux is not necessarily the only Microsoft product that could include the vulnerable Git code — it is the only Microsoft product Microsoft has publicly attested (via its CSAF/VEX inventory) to include the affected open‑source component for the CVE at the time of...
A surprising and quietly dangerous edge-case in Git’s local clone optimization has been tracked as CVE-2024-32020: when a repository is cloned locally (source and target on the same filesystem), Git’s speed-saving behavior can create hardlinks into the new clone’s object store that remain...
A high‑severity Git vulnerability, tracked as CVE‑2024‑32465, allows an attacker to bypass Git’s safeguards when you work with repositories that were obtained from untrusted sources (for example, archives that contain a full .git directory). The flaw was publicly disclosed in May 2024 and...
CISA’s August 25 alert that it has added three new flaws to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog should be treated as a red alert for IT teams: two significant issues in Citrix Session Recording (CVE-2024-8068 and CVE-2024-8069) and a client-side Git link-following vulnerability...
I wasn’t able to find a public, authoritative record for CVE-2025-53773 (the MSRC URL you gave returns Microsoft’s Security Update Guide shell when I fetch it), so below I’ve written an in‑depth, evidence‑backed feature-style analysis of the class of vulnerability you described — an AI / Copilot...

In the ever-evolving landscape of software development, the security of core tools is paramount—none more so than Git, the de facto version control system relied upon by millions of developers and countless organizations worldwide. Recently, the discovery and disclosure of a critical...
When a stray carriage return character can undermine the integrity of one the world’s most relied-upon version control tools, the stakes of meticulous config handling in Git become instantly clear. CVE-2025-48384 exposes exactly such a gap: a subtle, yet potentially dangerous vulnerability...
Unchecked vulnerabilities in core developer tools can threaten the digital foundation upon which software infrastructure depends, and the recently disclosed CVE-2025-46835 is a prime example of risks that emerge from seemingly innocuous workflows. As the software ecosystem becomes ever more...
Gitk, a popular graphical repository browser bundled with Git, has long served developers as an intuitive and powerful way to inspect version history, review changes, and visualize branching workflows. However, in recent months, a significant vulnerability—CVE-2025-27614—has been disclosed...
A recent report by TechSpot has cast a spotlight on an alarming vulnerability in the world of AI services. Chatbots—widely used for coding assistance and general inquiries—are apparently surfacing data from GitHub repositories that have been marked as private. This issue, identified by the...
