- Aegisub is a cross-platform advanced subtitle editor. From 3.2.0 to 3.4.2, Aegisub automatically loads
Automation scripts referenced by `Automation Scripts` metadata in `ASS` subtitle projects without asking
whether the user trusts the scripts or their authors. An attacker can distribute a crafted `ASS` file
together with a referenced malicious Automation script, and opening the `AS` file executes arbitrary code
with the privileges of the Aegisub process. From 3.4.0 to 3.4.2, inconsistent handling of embedded `NUL`
characters between extension validation and filesystem operations additionally allows a crafted `ASS/Lua`
polyglot to reference and execute itself as a single-file variant. The vulnerability is fixed in Aegisub
3.5.0. (CVE-2026-92705)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
