Lilypond · Lilypond · CVE-2020-17353
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
LilyPond versions 2.20.0 and earlier
LilyPond versions 2.21.x through 2.21.4
**Description**
The issue is related to a lack of restrictions on embedded-ps and embedded-svg when the -dsafe option is used. This can be exploited by including dangerous PostScript code, potentially allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
**Recommendations**
For LilyPond versions 2.20.0 and earlier, consider disabling the use of embedded-ps and embedded-svg until a patch is available.
For LilyPond versions 2.21.x through 2.21.4, restrict the use of embedded-ps and embedded-svg to minimize the risk of exploitation.
As a temporary workaround, avoid using the -dsafe option with embedded-ps and embedded-svg until the issue is resolved.
