Subject: CVE id request: newsbeuter
Hi,
newsbeuter (http://www.newsbeuter.org) 1.1 fixes a security
issue that was discovered by J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) and is
fixed in svn revision 1429.
The previous version allowed to execute arbitrary code by a
crafted feed URL that is passed as a command line parameter
if the URL is opened by an external browser.
Upstream changelog:
1.1:
Added a line wrap for the article view's headers and the link list on the bottom (fixes Debian issue #491122)
Added test suite for functional tests of the user interface
Fixed quoting issue in open-in-browser command
^^^^^
This issue should affect all newsbeuter versions < 1.1.
Can I get a CVE id for this please?
Kind regards
Nico
