CVSS v3.1
6.5
Média
| Vetor | AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
GNOME Nautilus versions prior to 3.23.90
Description
The issue allows attackers to spoof a file type by using the .desktop file extension. This can be demonstrated by an attack where a .desktop file's Name field ends in .pdf, but the Exec field launches a malicious "sh -c" command. The UI does not indicate that a file has the potentially unsafe .desktop extension; instead, it only shows the .pdf extension. An attack requires the .desktop file to have execute permission.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 3.23.90, the solution is to ask the user to confirm that the file is supposed to be treated as a .desktop file, and then remember the user's answer in the metadata::trusted field. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the execution of .desktop files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
