Package : python-git
Version : 3.1.14-1+deb11u1
CVE ID : CVE-2022-24439 CVE-2023-40267 CVE-2023-41040
Debian Bug : 1027163 1043503

GitPython provides object model access to a Git repository.

CVE-2022-24439, CVE-2023-40267 (follow-up)

Remote Code Execution (RCE) is possible due to improper user input
validation, which makes it possible to inject a maliciously crafted
remote URL into the clone command. Exploiting this vulnerability is
possible because the library makes external calls to git without
sufficient sanitization of input arguments.

CVE-2023-41040

GitPython reads files from the `.git` directory, in some places the
name of the file being read is provided by the user, GitPython
doesn't check if this file is located outside the `.git` directory.
This allows an attacker to make GitPython read any file from the
system.

For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version
3.1.14-1+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your python-git packages.

Package : xorg-server
Version : 2:1.20.11-1+deb11u14
CVE ID : CVE-2024-9632

Jan-Niklas Sohn working with Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative found an
issue in the X server and Xwayland implementations published by X.Org.
CVE-2024-9632 can be triggered by providing a modified bitmap to the X.Org
server. This may lead to local privilege escalation if the server is run
as root or remote code execution (e.g. x11 over ssh).

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
2:1.20.11-1+deb11u14.

We recommend that you upgrade your xorg-server packages.

For the detailed security status of xorg-server please refer to

Debian Bug : 1086244

Jan-Niklas Sohn discovered that a heap-based buffer overflow in the
_XkbSetCompatMap function in the X Keyboard Extension of the X.org X
server may result in privilege escalation if the X server is running
privileged.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
version 2:21.1.7-3+deb12u8.

We recommend that you upgrade your xorg-server packages.
