[bug] encryption of metadata in .git metadata file inside .git folder

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

 



hello,

greetings.

i am raising a git security red flag on the.git metadata files storing
git logs, commits, and other metadata inside .git folder not encrypted
using a two way salt or some other way like using a key for a two way
encryption or some method of software encryption internally if /
because the .git folder metadata is not encrypted.

this has been raised to github before but will be raised again via
hackerone security bug and to gitlab and altassian and other git
repository source users if they are using their own internal modified
sources.

most of the errors like these will be directly closed.

even packages like git-crypt do not encrypt metadata.

have a nice day.
