Notes

kees

This CVE is about the git VCS. The "git" from hardy and earlier is not what was "git-core".

jdstrand

Maverick and later renamed 'git-core' to 'git', so 'git' in these releases does refer to git VCS. initially marked 'low' since default filesystems on Ubuntu are case-sensitive, however file servers serving these reopositories to clients need to be patched, so upping to medium

tyhicks

git upstream fixed a minor regression in the HFS+ .git filtering with commit 6aaf956b
