Package: gitosis
Version: 0.2+20090917-11
Severity: important
Tags: security
After upgrading a system from lenny to squeeze the post-update hook is a
dangling symbolic link:
# readlink ~gitosis/repositories/gitosis-admin.git/hooks/post-update
/usr/share/python-support/gitosis/gitosis-0.2-py2.5.egg/gitosis/templates/admin/hooks/post-update
#
And the latter file of course does no longer exist. The bad part about
this is that revoking permission via gitosis.conf does not have any
effect anymore and this goes without any visible warning message in
syslog whatsoever. (This is what makes me add the security tag. If the
security team feels different, I ask them to remove the tag.)
The intended link target seems to be
/usr/share/pyshared/gitosis/templates/admin/hooks/post-update now. Given
that filename has not been that constant in the past, but its contents
have, I would suggest to copy it rather than link it.

gitosis was last released with Debian 6.0 (squeeze) in
February 2011 and removed from Debian sid/unstable later in 2011 (see
http://bugs.debian.org/641010 for details on the removal). Since
support for squeeze and squeeze-LTS has now ended, I'm closing all the
remaining bugs reported against this package.
