[slackware-security]  git (SSA:2021-070-01)

New git packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to
fix a security issue.


Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/git-2.17.6-i586-1_slack14.2.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes a security issue:
  On case-insensitive file systems with support for symbolic links, if Git is
  configured globally to apply delay-capable clean/smudge filters (such as Git
  LFS), Git could be fooled into running remote code during a clone. Credit for
  finding and fixing this vulnerability goes to Matheus Tavares, helped by
  Johannes Schindelin.
  For more information, see:

  (* Security fix *)
