Summary
Microsoft heeft kwetsbaarheden verholpen in Visual Studio.
Details
Interpretaties
Een kwaadwillende kan de kwetsbaarheden misbruiken om zich verhoogde rechten toe te kennen, of willekeurige code uit te voeren.
Een deel van de kwetsbaarheden zijn eerder verholpen in de code van diverse open source projecten gerelateerd aan GIT. Visual Studio maakt gebruik van deze code.
Voor succesvol misbruik moet de kwaadwillende het slachtoffer misleiden malafide code te importeren en uitvoeren.
Oplossingen
Microsoft heeft updates beschikbaar gesteld waarmee de beschreven kwetsbaarheden worden verholpen. We raden u aan om deze updates te installeren. Meer informatie over de kwetsbaarheden, de installatie van de updates en eventuele work-arounds vindt u op:

Git GUI malicious command injection on Windows
Git GUI allows you to use the Git source control management tools via a GUI. A malicious repository can ship versions of sh.exe or typical textconv filter programs such as astextplain. Due to the unfortunate design of Tcl on Windows, the search path when look…

Git alllows arbitrary file writes via bundle-uri parameter injection
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. When cloning a repository Git knows to optionally fetch a bundle advertised by the remote se…
