(MirBSD Korn Shell: Arbitrary code execution)

    Improper sanitation of environment import allows for appending of values
      to passed parameters.
  
Impact :

    An attacker who already had access to the environment could so append
      values to parameters passed through programs (including sudo(8) or
      setuid) to shell scripts, including indirectly, after those programs
      intended to sanitise the environment, e.g. invalidating the last $PATH
      component.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
