CVE-2024-32004
Description
A vulnerability was found in Git. This vulnerability can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker who places a specialized repository on the target's local system. If the victim clones this repository, the attacker can execute arbitrary code.
Statement
This vulnerability, while significant, does not reach Critical severity due to its reliance on local repository manipulation. While it allows attackers to execute arbitrary code during cloning operations, its impact is constrained by the necessity for access to the target's local environment. Critical severity typically involves vulnerabilities that can be exploited remotely or without user interaction. Nonetheless, this issue remains Important as it can lead to unauthorized code execution, potentially compromising the integrity and security of affected systems.
Fuse 7 Karaf uses JGit to manage patches. It's heavily protected by file permissions and RBAC. Unless an attacker have write permissions to Fuse internal git repositories, this vulnerability is not exploitable.
Mitigation
Exercise caution when cloning repositories from untrusted sources.
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).
