Description:
Brian Fonfara has discovered a vulnerability in CenterIM, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to the improper handling of URLs received via a chat message. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary commands on a vulnerable system by tricking the user into opening a specially crafted URL containing shell escape characters.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 4.22.3. Prior versions may also be affected.
