Bug#1031948: bullseye-pu: package libgit2/1.1.0+dfsg.1-4+deb11u1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: bullseye
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
X-Debbugs-Cc: libgit2@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:libgit2
After fixing CVE-2023-22742 for LTS and ELTS, I'd like to see
this CVE also fixed in stable, for consistency.
The CVE is an inproper ssh certificate validation vulnerabilty,
which allows man-in-the-middle attacks.
[ Tests ]
I've manually tested the patch (checking if git poperations still
work using the ssh transport.
Autopkgtests are green too.
[ Risks ]
Manual tests and test suite works ok.
[ Checklist ]
[X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
[X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
[ Changes ]
The change is a backport of the upstream fix:

+Description: CVE-2023-22742 - fails to verify SSH keys by default
+ CVE-Description: libgit2 is a cross-platform, linkable library
+ implementation of Git. When using an SSH remote with the optional libssh2
+ backend, libgit2 does not perform certificate checking by default. Prior
+ versions of libgit2 require the caller to set the `certificate_check` field of
+ libgit2's `git_remote_callbacks` structure - if a certificate check callback is
+ not set, libgit2 does not perform any certificate checking. This means that by
+ default - without configuring a certificate check callback, clients will not
+ perform validation on the server SSH keys and may be subject to a
+ man-in-the-middle attack.
+ This is a backport of the upstream fix to the Debian stretch version.
