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 reading a config value, Git strips
any trailing carriage return and line feed (CRLF). When writing a
config entry, values with a trailing CR are not quoted, causing the CR
to be lost when the config is later read. When initializing a
submodule, if the submodule path contains a trailing CR, the altered
path is read resulting in the submodule being checked out to an
incorrect location. If a symlink exists that points the altered path
to the submodule hooks directory, and the submodule contains an
executable post-checkout hook, the script may be unintentionally
executed after checkout. This vulnerability is fixed in v2.43.7,
v2.44.4, v2.45.4, v2.46.4, v2.47.3, v2.48.2, v2.49.1, and v2.50.1.
