CVE-2023-25815
Description
A vulnerability was found in Git. This security flaw occurs when Git compiles with runtime prefix support and runs without translated messages, and it still uses the gettext machinery to display messages, which subsequently looks for translated messages in unexpected places. This flaw allows the malicious placement of crafted messages.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
