[ANNOUNCE] Git for Windows 2.40.1

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear Git users,

I hereby announce that Git for Windows 2.40.1 is available from:

    https://gitforwindows.org/

Changes since Git for Windows v2.40.0 (March 14th 2023)

This is a security release, addressing CVE-2023-29012, CVE-2023-29011,
CVE-2023-29007, CVE-2023-25815 and CVE-2023-25652.

As announced previously, Git for Windows will drop support for Windows
7 and for Windows 8 in one of the next versions, following Cygwin's and
MSYS2's lead (Git for Windows relies on MSYS2 for components such as
Bash and Perl).

Also following the footsteps of the MSYS2 and Cygwin projects on which
Git for Windows depends, the 32-bit variant of Git for Windows is
nearing its end of support.

New Features

  * Comes with Git v2.40.1.

Bug Fixes

  * Addresses CVE-2023-29012, a vulnerability where starting Git CMD
    would execute doskey.exe in the current directory, if it exists.
  * Addresses CVE-2023-29011, a vulnerability where the SOCKS5 proxy
    called connect.exe is susceptible to picking up an untrusted
    configuration on multi-user machines.
  * Addresses CVE-2023-29007, a vulnerability where git submodule
    deinit can inadvertently introduce malicious changes into the Git
    config file.
  * Addresses CVE-2023-25815, a vulnerability where Git can
    unexpectedly show crafted "localized" messages written by another
    user on a multi-user machine.
  * Addresses CVE-2023-25652, a vulnerability where git apply --reject
    could follow symbolic links to write files outside the worktree.
