+Git v2.30.9 Release Notes
+=========================
+
+This release addresses the security issues CVE-2023-25652,
+CVE-2023-25815, and CVE-2023-29007.
+
+
+Fixes since v2.30.8
+-------------------
+
+ * CVE-2023-25652:
+
+ By feeding specially crafted input to `git apply --reject`, a
+ path outside the working tree can be overwritten with partially
+ controlled contents (corresponding to the rejected hunk(s) from
+ the given patch).
+
+ * CVE-2023-25815:
+
+ When Git is compiled with runtime prefix support and runs without
+ translated messages, it still used the gettext machinery to
+ display messages, which subsequently potentially looked for
+ translated messages in unexpected places. This allowed for
+ malicious placement of crafted messages.
+
+ * CVE-2023-29007:
+
+ When renaming or deleting a section from a configuration file,
+ certain malicious configuration values may be misinterpreted as
+ the beginning of a new configuration section, leading to arbitrary
+ configuration injection.
+
+Credit for finding CVE-2023-25652 goes to Ry0taK, and the fix was

+

+Schindelin, with help from Jeff King, and Patrick Steinhardt.
