Package : xdg-utils
CVE ID : CVE-2015-1877
Debian Bug : 777722

Jiri Horner discovered a way to cause xdg-open, a tool that automatically
opens URLs in a user's preferred application, to execute arbitrary
commands remotely.

This problem only affects /bin/sh implementations that don't sanitize
local variables. Dash, which is the default /bin/sh in Debian is
affected. Bash as /bin/sh is known to be unaffected.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.1.0~rc1+git20111210-6+deb7u3.

For the upcoming stable (jessie) and unstable (sid) distributions,
this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your xdg-utils packages.
