Subjectopen security issues in the git packages
Message-ID<FPqlP-1nu6-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi Jonathan,

are you planning to fix the open security issues in git?
In addition to the two new ones from… last week I think,
given Ubuntu LTS-security has been carrying the fixes for
8 days now, there’s another four issues in stable that
are fixed in testing/sid (newer versions?) and oldstable
(LTS team) that need fixing, according to the security
tracker. The versions in Debian and *buntu don’t exactly
match, but perhaps appropriate patches for the respective
versions are available, or they apply with little fuzz?

In addition the bullseye-backports version is horribly
outdated with respect to testing (13 months old). Roger,
what are you planning to do about that? Please update or
(less ideally) ask for removal; the current state is a
disservice to users and violates the bpo rules.

Thanks in advance,
//mirabilos

Just a data point around this, I spent a good chunk of yesterday
porting Ubuntu's 22-patch series for CVE-2022-23521 and
CVE-2022-41903 from the 1:2.25.1-1ubuntu3.7 package in focal-updates
to the 1:2.30.2-1 in bullseye. The only patch my colleagues and I
found which needed adjustment was 0012, and for that I was able to
apply upstream commit 3c50032 directly instead.

Ubuntu has issued https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-5810-2 now
covering the lack of completeness we alerted them to in their patch
0012 for focal and bionic, so definitely don't use their original
patch straight.
