Package : python-git
Version : 2.1.11-1+deb10u1
CVE ID : CVE-2022-24439
Debian Bug : 1027163

Sam Wheating discovered that python-git, a Python library to interact
with Git repositories, is vulnerable to shell injection due to
improper user input validation, which makes it possible to inject a
maliciously crafted remote URL into the clone command.

For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version
2.1.11-1+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your python-git packages.
