Descriptions

In Mahara before 20.04.5, 20.10.3, 21.04.2, and 21.10.0, exported CSV files could contain characters that a spreadsheet program could interpret as a command, leading to execution of a malicious string locally on a device, aka CSV injection.

En Mahara versiones anteriores a 20.04.5, 20.10.3, 21.04.2 y 21.10.0, los archivos CSV exportados podían contener caracteres que un programa de hoja de cálculo podía interpretar como un comando, conllevando a una ejecución de una cadena maliciosa localmente en un dispositivo, lo que se conoce como inyección CSV
