Descriptions

Bitcoin Core before 0.19.0 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code when another application unsafely passes the -platformpluginpath argument to the bitcoin-qt program, as demonstrated by an x-scheme-handler/bitcoin handler for a .desktop file or a web browser. NOTE: the discoverer states "I believe that this vulnerability cannot actually be exploited."

Bitcoin Core versiones anteriores a 0.19.0, podría permitir a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario cuando otra aplicación pasa de manera no segura el argumento -platformpluginpath al programa bitcoin-qt, como es demostrado por un manejador de esquema x/controlador de bitcoin para un archivo de escritorio o navegador web. NOTA: el descubridor afirma "Creo que esta vulnerabilidad no se puede explotar"
