The links web browser with smbclient installed allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via shell metacharacters in an smb:// URI, as demonstrated by using PUT and GET statements.

Corporate 3.0 is not affected by this issue, as that version of links does not have smb:// URI support.

Updated packages have disabled access to smb:// URIs.
