CVE-2022-24975

26
FAUCET Score

CVE-2022-24975, dubbed "GitBleed," concerns the Git --mirror command in Git versions up to 2.35.1, where its documentation fails to disclose that deleted content remains accessible. This could lead to unintended information disclosure if auditing processes rely on non-mirror clones. The vulnerability is rated High severity (CVSS 7.5) due to its potential for high confidentiality impact without requiring user interaction or complex attack vectors. Despite the severity, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion, and its status on the CISA KEV list is "No."
