Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2021-05-11 05:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 03:53
Summary
An issue was discovered in Thunar before 4.16.7 and 4.17.x before 4.17.2. When called with a regular file as a command-line argument, it delegates to a different program (based on the file type) without user confirmation. This could be used to achieve code execution.
