Prior to Git for Windows version 2.39.2, by carefully crafting DLL and putting into a subdirectory of a specific name living next to the Git for Windows installer, Windows can be tricked into side-loading said DLL. This potentially allows users with local write access to place malicious payloads in a location where automated upgrades might run the Git for Windows installer with elevation. Version 2.39.2 contains a patch for this issue. Some workarounds are available. Never leave untrusted files in the Downloads folder or its sub-folders before executing the Git for Windows installer, or move the installer into a different directory before executing it."}],"source":{"advisory":"GHSA-p2x9-prp4-8gvq","discovery":"UNKNOWN"}},"adp":[{"providerMetadata":{"orgId":"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108","shortName":"CVE","dateUpdated":"2024-08-02T10:20:30.039Z"},"title":"CVE Program Container","references":[{"name":"https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/security/advisories/GHSA-p2x9-prp4-8gvq","tags":["x_refsource_CONFIRM","x_transferred"],"url":"https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/security/advisories/GHSA-p2x9-prp4-8gvq"},{"name":"https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/security/advisories/GHSA-gf48-x3vr-j5c3","tags":["x_refsource_MISC","x_transferred"],"url":"https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/security/advisories/GHSA-gf48-x3vr-j5c3"},{"name":"https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1574/002/","tags":["x_refsource_MISC","x_transferred"],"url":"https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1574/002/"},{"name":"https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.39.2.windows.1","tags":["x_refsource_MISC","x_transferred"],"url":"https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.39.2.windows.1"},{"name":"https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/controls/cookbook-overview?redirectedfrom=MSDN#using-comctl32dll-version-6-in-an-application-that-uses-only-standard-extensions","tags":["x_refsource_MISC","x_transferred"],"url":"https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/controls/cookbook-overview?redirectedfrom=MSDN#using-comctl32dll-version-6-in-an-application-that-uses-only-standard-extensions"},{"name":"https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sbscs/about-side-by-side-assemblies-","tags":["x_refsource_MISC","x_transferred"],"url":"https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sbscs/about-side-by-side-assemblies-"}]},{"metrics":[{"other":{"type":"ssvc","content":{"timestamp":"2025-03-10T20:57:49.109097Z","id":"CVE-2023-22743","options":[{"Exploitation":"none"},{"Automatable":"no"},{"Technical Impact":"total"}],"role":"CISA Coordinator","version":"2.0.3"}}}],"title":"CISA ADP Vulnrichment","providerMetadata":{"orgId":"134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0","shortName":"CISA-ADP","dateUpdated":"2025-03-10T21:11:18.086Z"}}]}}
