SHA-1 is not collision resistant, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to conduct spoofing attacks, as demonstrated by attacks on the use of SHA-1 in TLS 1.2. NOTE: this CVE exists to provide a common identifier for referencing this SHA-1 issue; the existence of an identifier is not, by itself, a technology recommendation.

Security update for git
This update for git fixes the following issues:
git was updated to 2.45.1:
- CVE-2024-32002: recursive clones on case-insensitive filesystems that support symbolic links are susceptible to case confusion (bsc#1224168)
- CVE-2024-32004: arbitrary code execution during local clones (bsc#1224170)
- CVE-2024-32020: file overwriting vulnerability during local clones (bsc#1224171)
- CVE-2024-32021: git may create hardlinks to arbitrary user- readable files (bsc#1224172)
- CVE-2024-32465: arbitrary code execution during clone operations (bsc#1224173)
Update to 2.45.0:
- Improved efficiency managing repositories with many references ("git init --ref-format=reftable")
- "git checkout -p" and friends learned that that "@" is a synonym for "HEAD"
- cli improvements handling refs
- Expanded a number of commands and options, UI improvements
- status.showUntrackedFiles now accepts "true"
- git-cherry-pick(1) now automatically drops redundant commits with new --empty option
- The userdiff patterns for C# has been updated.
Update to 2.44.0:
- "git checkout -B <branch>" now longer allows switching to a branch that is in use on another worktree. The users need to use "--ignore-other-worktrees" option.
- Faster server-side rebases with git replay
- Faster pack generation with multi-pack reuse
- rebase auto-squashing now works in non-interactive mode
- pathspec now understands attr, e.g. ':(attr:~binary) for selecting non-binaries, or builtin_objectmode for selecting items by file mode or other properties
- Many other cli UI and internal improvements and extensions
- Do not replace apparmor configuration, fixes bsc#1216545
Update to 2.43.2:
- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/Documentation/RelNotes/2.43.2.txt
- Update to a new feature recently added, "git show-ref --exists".
- Rename detection logic ignored the final line of a file if it is an incomplete line.
- "git diff --no-rename A B" did not disable rename detection but did not trigger an error from the command line parser.
- "git diff --no-index file1 file2" segfaulted while invoking the external diff driver, which has been corrected.
- A failed "git tag -s" did not necessarily result in an error depending on the crypto backend, which has been corrected.
- "git stash" sometimes was silent even when it failed due to unwritable index file, which has been corrected.
- Recent conversion to allow more than 0/1 in GIT_FLUSH broke the mechanism by flipping what yes/no means by mistake, which has been corrected.
Update to 2.43.1:
-
gitweb AppArmor profile: allow reading etc/gitweb-common.conf (bsc#1218664)
-
git moved to /usr/libexec/git/git, update AppArmor profile accordingly (bsc#1218588)
Update to 2.43.0:
- The "--rfc" option of "git format-patch" used to be a valid way to override an earlier "--subject-prefix=<something>" on the command line and replace it with "[RFC PATCH]", but from this release, it merely prefixes the string "RFC " in front of the given subject prefix. If you are negatively affected by this change, please use "--subject-prefix=PATCH --rfc" as a replacement.
- In Git 2.42, "git rev-list --stdin" learned to take non-revisions (like "--not") from the standard input, but the way such a "--not" was handled was quite confusing, which has been rethought. The updated rule is that "--not" given from the command line only affects revs given from the command line that comes but not revs read from the standard input, and "--not" read from the standard input affects revs given from the standard input and not revs given from the command line.
- A message written in olden time prevented a branch from getting checked out, saying it is already checked out elsewhere. But these days, we treat a branch that…
