CVE-2023-44452

Linux Mint Xreader CBT File Parsing Argument Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Linux Mint Xreader. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of CBT files. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current user. Was ZDI-CAN-22132.

Summary		(es) Vulnerabilidad de ejecución remota de código de inyección de argumentos de análisis de archivos CBT de Linux Mint Xreader. Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario en instalaciones afectadas de Linux Mint Xreader. Se requiere la interacción del usuario para aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad, ya que el objetivo debe visitar una página maliciosa o abrir un archivo malicioso. La falla específica existe en el análisis de archivos CBT. El problema se debe a la falta de validación adecuada de una cadena proporcionada por el usuario antes de usarla para ejecutar una llamada al sistema. Un atacante puede aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad para ejecutar código en el contexto del usuario actual. Era ZDI-CAN-22132.
