Package        : git-lfs
Version        : 2.13.2-1+deb11u1
CVE ID         : CVE-2024-53263
Debian Bug     : 1093048

CVE-2024-53263

    When Git LFS requests credentials from Git for a remote host, it
    passes portions of the host's URL to the `git-credential(1)` command
    without checking for embedded line-ending control characters, and then
    sends any credentials it receives back from the Git credential helper
    to the remote host. By inserting URL-encoded control characters such
    as line feed (LF) or carriage return (CR) characters into the URL,
    an attacker may be able to retrieve a user's Git credentials.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
2.13.2-1+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your git-lfs packages.
