✅ Remediation
To start using the Web Terminal Operator, install the Web Terminal Operator from OpenShift OperatorHub on OpenShift Container Platform 4.20 or higher. Workaround: To mitigate the issue, we suggest upgrading to versions 5.9.0+ or 6.0.0-alpha.1+ Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability. Workaround: To reduce the risk of exploitation, do not clone or run worktree operations (checkout, status, add) on Git repositories originating from untrusted or attacker-controllable sources using an affected version of go-git. The issue is resolved by updating to go-git 5.19.2 or 6.0.0-alpha.5 (or later).
