Synopsis ========
A vulnerability has been discovered in Xdg-Utils, allowing for the remote execution of arbitrary commands.
Background ==========
Xdg-Utils is a set of tools allowing all applications to easily integrate with the Free Desktop configuration.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 x11-misc/xdg-utils < 1.0.2-r1 >= 1.0.2-r1
Description ===========
Miroslav Lichvar discovered that the "xdg-open" and "xdg-email" shell scripts do not properly sanitize their input before processing it.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted link with a vulnerable application using Xdg-Utils (e.g. an email client), resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All Xdg-Utils users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=x11-misc/xdg-utils-1.0.2-r1"
