{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53585","details":"libgit2 is a portable C implementation of the Git core methods provided as a linkable library with a solid API, allowing to build Git functionality into your application. Prior to 1.8.6 and 1.9.5, git_delta_apply in src/libgit2/delta.c trusts the attacker-controlled res_sz value parsed by hdr_sz from a delta object header and passes that amount to git__malloc before validating delta instructions. Malicious pack data supplied through git_clone, git_fetch, git_remote_fetch, git_indexer_append, or a local attacker-supplied repository can use a very small multi-level OFS_DELTA chain to retain extremely large allocations and exhaust memory. This issue is fixed in versions 1.8.6 and 1.9.5.","modified":"2026-09-10T08:47:30.219991417Z","published":"2026-08-20T19:16:54.837Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-53585"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-53585"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"libgit2","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/libgit2?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.5.1+ds-1","1.5.1+ds-1+deb12u1","1.6.4+ds-1","1.7.1+ds-1","1.7.1+ds-2","1.7.2+ds-1","1.8.1+ds-1","1.8.1+ds-2","1.8.2~rc1+ds-1","1.8.2~rc1+ds-2","1.8.2~rc1+ds2-1","1.8.4+ds-1","1.8.4+ds-2","1.8.4+ds-3","1.8.4+ds-3~bpo12+1","1.8.4+ds-3~bpo12+1~bin","1.9.0+ds-1","1.9.0+ds-2","1.9.1+ds-1","1.9.2+ds-1","1.9.2+ds-2","1.9.2+ds-3","1.9.2+ds-4","1.9.2+ds-5","1.9.2+ds-6","1.9.2+ds-7","1.9.2+ds-8","1.9.2+ds-9","1.9.3+ds-1","1.9.4+ds-1","1.9.6+ds-1","1.9.7+ds-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53585.json"}},{"package":{"name":"libgit2","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/libgit2?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.9.0+ds-2+deb13u1"}]}],"versions":["1.9.0+ds-2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53585.json"}},{"package":{"name":"libgit2","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/libgit2?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.9.6+ds-1"}]}],"versions":["1.9.0+ds-2","1.9.1+ds-1","1.9.2+ds-1","1.9.2+ds-2","1.9.2+ds-3","1.9.2+ds-4","1.9.2+ds-5","1.9.2+ds-6","1.9.2+ds-7","1.9.2+ds-8","1.9.2+ds-9","1.9.3+ds-1","1.9.4+ds-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-53585.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L"}]}
