This functionality is also + exposed to git archive via the export-subst gitattribute. + + When processing the padding operators (e.g., %<(, %<|(, %>(, + %>>(, or %><( ), an integer overflow can occur in + pretty.c::format_and_pad_commit() where a size_t is improperly + stored as an int, and then added as an offset to a subsequent + memcpy() call. + + This overflow can be triggered directly by a user running a + command which invokes the commit formatting machinery (e.g., git + log --format=...). It may also be triggered indirectly through + git archive via the export-subst mechanism, which expands format + specifiers inside of files within the repository during a git + archive. + + This integer overflow can result in arbitrary heap writes, which + may result in remote code execution. + +* CVE-2022-23521: + + gitattributes are a mechanism to allow defining attributes for + paths. These attributes can be defined by adding a `.gitattributes` + file to the repository, which contains a set of file patterns and + the attributes that should be set for paths matching this pattern. + + When parsing gitattributes, multiple integer overflows can occur + when there is a huge number of path patterns, a huge number of + attributes for a single pattern, or when the declared attribute + names are huge. + + These overflows can be triggered via a crafted `.gitattributes` file + that may be part of the commit history. Git silently splits lines + longer than 2KB when parsing gitattributes from a file, but not when + parsing them from the index. Consequentially, the failure mode + depends on whether the file exists in the working tree, the index or + both. + + This integer overflow can result in arbitrary heap reads and writes, + which may result in remote code execution. + +Credit for finding CVE-2022-41903 goes to Joern Schneeweisz of GitLab. +An initial fix was authored by Markus Vervier of X41 D-Sec. Credit for +finding CVE-2022-23521 goes to Markus Vervier and Eric Sesterhenn of X41 +D-Sec.
