Input passed via "img" tags is not properly sanitised before being used when images are dragged into the editing window. This can be exploited to e.g. execute arbitrary script code within the "chrome:" context and execute arbitrary commands on a user's system. Successful exploitation requires that a user e.g. drags an image from a specially crafted web page into the editing window. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.4.1. Prior versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Update to version 3.4.2 or later.
