Descriptions
In Xfce xfce4-settings before 4.16.4 and 4.17.x before 4.17.1, there is an argument injection vulnerability in xfce4-mime-helper.
En Xfce xfce4-settings anterior a 4.16.4 y 4.17.x anterior a 4.17.1, existe una vulnerabilidad de inyección de argumentos en xfce4-mime-helper.
Robin Peraglie and Johannes Moritz discovered an argument injection bug in the xfce4-mime-helper component of xfce4-settings, which can be exploited using the xdg-open common tool. Since xdg-open is used by multiple standard applications for opening links, this bug could be exploited by an attacker to run arbitrary code on an user machine by providing a malicious PDF file with specifically crafted links.
