CVE-2022-24765:
   On multi-user machines, Git users might find themselves
   unexpectedly in a Git worktree, e.g. when another user created a
   repository in `C:\.git`, in a mounted network drive or in a
   scratch space. Merely having a Git-aware prompt that runs `git
   status` (or `git diff`) and navigating to a directory which is
   supposedly not a Git worktree, or opening such a directory in an
   editor or IDE such as VS Code or Atom, will potentially run
   commands defined by that other user.

Credit for finding this vulnerability goes to 俞晨东; the fix was
authored by Johannes Schindelin.
