✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: - Avoid cloning repositories from untrusted sources with --recurse-submodules. - Instead, consider cloning repositories without recursively cloning their submodules, and instead run git submodule update at each layer. Before doing so, inspect each new .gitmodules file to ensure that it does not contain suspicious module URLs. Workaround: Use git apply --stat to inspect a patch before applying; avoid applying one that creates a symbolic link and then creates a file beyond the symbolic link.
