Midnight Commander contains several format string vulnerabilities
|
||
|

<impact type="normal">
|

|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to execute
|
||
|
|
arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running Midnight
|
||
|
|
Commander or cause Denial of Service by freeing unallocated memory.
|
||
|

<workaround>
|
