NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream teleport-fips-17 package and not the teleport-fips-17 package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

go-git is an extensible git implementation library written in pure Go. Prior to 5.19.2 and 6.0.0-alpha.5, reference names are not sanitized before being used to construct on-disk paths under the reference storage directory, so a maliciously crafted reference name (for example containing directory-traversal sequences) can cause go-git to write files outside the intended reference storage directory. Versions 5.19.2 and 6.0.0-alpha.5 fix the issue.
