**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** git versions prior to 2.7.4 **Description** The issue is related to the use of an incorrect integer data type in the revision.c file of the git distributed version control system. This can be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long filename or many nested trees, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow. **Recommendations** For git versions prior to 2.7.4, update to version 2.7.4 or later to resolve the issue.

As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of long filenames and nested trees to minimize the risk of exploitation.
