How to fix?

Upgrade Wolfi gitness to version 3.0.0_beta5-r0 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gitness package and not the gitness package as distributed by Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability was discovered in go-git versions prior to v5.11. This vulnerability allows an attacker to perform denial of service attacks by providing specially crafted responses from a Git server which triggers resource exhaustion in go-git clients.

Applications using only the in-memory filesystem supported by go-git are not affected by this vulnerability. This is a go-git implementation issue and does not affect the upstream git cli.
