-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2017-2c7ddf53d3 2017-11-21 20:38:55.508885 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : git Product : Fedora 27 Version : 2.14.3 Release : 2.fc27 URL : https://git-scm.com/ Summary : Fast Version Control System Description : Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
The git rpm installs common set of tools which are usually using with small amount of dependencies. To install all git packages, including tools for integrating with other SCMs, install the git-all meta-package.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
Previous versions of git mishandled layers of tree objects, which allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted repository, aka a git bomb. This can also have an impact of disk consumption; however, an affected process typically would not survive its attempt to build the data structure in memory before writing to disk. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References:
