CVE-2023-22743 2 Git-scm, Git For Windows Project 2 Git, Git For Windows 2023-02-23 N/A 7.3 HIGH
Git for Windows is the Windows port of the revision control system Git. Prior to Git for Windows version 2.39.2, by carefully crafting DLL and putting into a subdirectory of a specific name living next to the Git for Windows installer, Windows can be tricked into side-loading said DLL. This potentially allows users with local write access to place malicious payloads in a location where automated upgrades might run the Git for Windows installer with elevation. Version 2.39.2 contains a patch for this issue. Some workarounds are available. Never leave untrusted files in the Downloads folder or its sub-folders before executing the Git for Windows installer, or move the installer into a different directory before executing it.
CVE-2023-23618 1 Git For Windows Project 1 Git For Windows 2023-02-23 N/A 7.8 HIGH
Git for Windows is the Windows port of the revision control system Git. Prior to Git for Windows version 2.39.2, when `gitk` is run on Windows, it potentially runs executables from the current directory inadvertently, which can be exploited with some social engineering to trick users into running untrusted code. A patch is available in version 2.39.2. As a workaround, avoid using `gitk` (or Git GUI's "Visualize History" functionality) in clones of untrusted repositories.
CVE-2016-9274 1 Git For Windows Project 1 Git For Windows 2020-08-13 4.4 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
Untrusted search path vulnerability in Git 1.x for Windows allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse git.exe file in the current working directory. NOTE: 2.x is unaffected.
