FEDORA-2021-63fcbd126e created by tmz 3 years ago for Fedora 33

Security fix for CVE-2021-21300

A specially crafted repository that contains symbolic links as well as files using a clean/smudge filter such as Git LFS, may cause just-checked out script to be executed while cloning onto a case-insensitive file system such as NTFS, HFS+ or APFS. Note that clean/smudge filters have to be configured in advance, in the system-wide or global user configuration for this bug to be exploited.

This issue does not affect Fedora in default configurations.

For further details, please refer to the upstream advisory.

Thanks for testing everyone.

I was hoping to keep this in updates testing for a bit longer. The update is from 2.29 to 2.30 and while I don't anticipate any issues with that, there are a lot of use-cases I could miss.

The security issue being resolved does not affect the overwhelming majority of Fedora users and is not urgent enough warrant pushing this to stable after less than a full day in the testing repo.

In the future, i'd appreciate a heads up before an update is pushed to stable. I disabled the autopush explicitly. Thanks.
