Descriptions

lilypond-invoke-editor in LilyPond 2.19.80 does not validate strings before launching the program specified by the BROWSER environment variable, which allows remote attackers to conduct argument-injection attacks via a crafted URL, as demonstrated by a --proxy-pac-file argument.

lilypond-invoke-editor en LilyPond en versiones anteriores a la 2.19.80 no valida cadenas antes de iniciar el programa especificado por la variable de entorno BROWSER. Esto permite que atacantes remotos lleven a cabo ataques de inyección de argumentos mediante una URL manipulada, tal y como demuestra un argumento --proxy-pac-file.
