Debian Security Advisory DSA-3131-1 [email protected]

Package : xdg-utils
CVE ID : CVE-2014-9622
Debian Bug : 773085

John Houwer discovered a way to cause xdg-open, a tool that automatically
opens URLs in a user's preferred application, to execute arbitrary
commands remotely.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.1.0~rc1+git20111210-6+deb7u2.

For the upcoming stable (jessie) and unstable (sid) distributions,
this problem has been fixed in version 1.1.0~rc1+git20111210-7.3.

We recommend that you upgrade your xdg-utils packages.
