The “less” utility is a text file browser that resembles “more”, but allows
users to move backwards in the file as well as forwards. Since “less” does not
read the entire input file at startup, it also starts more quickly than ordinary
text editors.

Security Fix(es):

  • less: OS command injection (CVE-2024-32487)
