Red Hat: CVE-2024-32020: git: insecure hardlinks (Multiple Advisories)

A vulnerability was found in Git. This flaw allows an unauthenticated attacker to place a specialized repository on their target's local system. For performance reasons, Git uses hardlinks when cloning a repository located on the same disk. However, if the repo being cloned is owned by a different user, this can introduce a security risk. At any time in the future, the original repo owner could rewrite the hardlinked files in the cloned user's repo.
