git: Update to 2.25.4
Changes:
2.25.4
------
This release is to address the security issue: CVE-2020-11008
* With a crafted URL that contains a newline or empty host, or lacks
a scheme, the credential helper machinery can be fooled into
providing credential information that is not appropriate for the
protocol in use and host being contacted.
Unlike the vulnerability CVE-2020-5260 fixed in v2.17.4, the
credentials are not for a host of the attacker's choosing; instead,
they are for some unspecified host (based on how the configured
credential helper handles an absent "host" parameter).
The attack has been made impossible by refusing to work with
under-specified credential patterns.
Credit for finding the vulnerability goes to Carlo Arenas.
