CVE-2024-22038

Information disclosure and service interruption via link following

Published Nov 28, 2024 · Updated Nov 28, 2024

Link-following flaws in obs-scm-bridge before 0.5.2 allow attackers to disclose data or interrupt service using crafted Git repositories. SUSE identifies improper link resolution before file access but does not publish the affected function, path checks, or exact file operations. Exploitation requires a user or build workflow to process an attacker-created repository locally; the affected operations can also modify data handled by the bridge.
