NVD description
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.
Listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Federal remediation due date: 2025-09-15. Apply mitigations per vendor instructions, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance for cloud services, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.

RIP you. CVE-2025-48384: allows arbitrary file write and ultimately code execution on Linux and macOS when using `git clone --recursive` on a weaponized repository This is what we saw this exact threat actor use a few months back. The clone/open in VS Code (“runOn”: “folderOpen”) is also deadly. They improved shit a bit now, but that one was used by the DPRK skiddies forever and with great success. Simply does not register as dangerous to devs.
