Brotli vulnerability affects curl and Git

A security flaw in the Brotli compression library is reported to affect widely used developer tools curl and Git. A GitHub security advisory has been published for the issue, and developers are being urged to check whether their systems rely on affected versions and update accordingly. The tools are installed on millions of machines, so any vulnerability in this dependency chain raises concern across the software supply chain.

Why now: curl and Git are ubiquitous developer tools, so a shared vulnerability in a core compression library immediately concerns the security community.
