| 37 | A security vulnerability exists in all versions of
|
|---|
| 38 | <application>xdg-utils</application> from version 1.1.0rc1 when handling
|
|---|
| 39 | mailto: URIs. An attacker could potentially send a victim a URI that
|
|---|
| 40 | automatically attaches a sensitive file to a new email. If a victim user
|
|---|
| 41 | does not notice that an attachment was added and sends the email, this
|
|---|
| 42 | could result in sensitive information disclosure.

|---|
| 43 | </para>
|

| 44 |
|
|---|
| 45 | <para>
|
|---|
| 46 | To mitigate this flaw, either do not use mailto links at all, or always
|
|---|
| 47 | double-check in the user interface that there are no unwanted attachments
|
|---|
| 48 | before sending emails, especially when the email originates from clicking
|
|---|
| 49 | on a mailto link.
