Description:
9
 
 The open_envvar function in xdg-open in xdg-utils before 1.1.3 does not
10
 
 validate strings before launching the program specified by the BROWSER
11
 
 environment variable, which might allow remote attackers to conduct
12
 
 argument-injection attacks via a crafted URL, as demonstrated by %s in this
13
 
 environment variable.
