Technical details
The vulnerability exists in git-fast-import(1) and git-fast-export(1) commands, where the features `rewrite-submodules-to`, `rewrite-submodules-from`, and the option `export-pack-edges` allow reading from or writing to arbitrary filesystem paths. These features were not marked as unsafe despite being introduced after a prior disclosure (CVE-2019-1348) that addressed the same class of issue with the `export-marks` feature. The attack requires processing untrusted repository data, but the precise preconditions and exploit chain are not detailed in the advisory.
