It uses "int" in many places, which can + overflow if we have a very large number of lines or even bytes in + our input files, for example. Cap the input size to soemwhere + around 1GB for now. + + * Some protocols (like git-remote-ext) can execute arbitrary code + found in the URL. The URLs that submodules use may come from + arbitrary sources (e.g., .gitmodules files in a remote + repository), and can hurt those who blindly enable recursive + fetch. Restrict the allowed protocols to well known and safe + ones. |
