Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the git fast-import command where it provides the export-marks feature that may unexpectedly overwrite arbitrary paths. An attacker can abuse this flaw if they can control the input passed to the fast-import command by using the export-marks feature and overwrite arbitrary files, but would not have complete control on the content of the file.

Description Pedro Sampaio 2019-12-10 23:52:06 UTC 
The --export-marks option of git fast-import is exposed also via the in-stream command feature export-marks=... and it allows overwriting arbitrary paths.

Comment 5 Riccardo Schirone 2019-12-17 15:39:32 UTC 
Mitigation:

Avoid running `git fast-import` on untrusted input.
Comment 8 Riccardo Schirone 2019-12-17 17:55:44 UTC 
Command `git fast-import` accepts, among other things, the in-stream command `feature export-marks=<path>`, which lets the stream write marks to an arbitrary path. If an attacker can control the input stream, he could overwrite an arbitrary path, though he could not fully control the content of the file because it has a standard format (each line is of the form `:markid SHA-1`).
