The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202105-17 (rxvt-unicode: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

It was discovered that rxvt-unicode did not properly handle certain       escape sequences.

Impact :

A remote attacker could entice a user to run a program where attacker       controls the output inside a rxvt terminal window, possibly resulting in       execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a       Denial of Service condition.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
