Description Pedro Sampaio 2017-12-21 19:56:02 UTC

backends/platform/sdl/posix/posix.cpp in ScummVM 1.9.0 does not validate strings
before launching the program specified by the BROWSER environment variable,
which might allow remote attackers to conduct argument-injection attacks via a
crafted URL.
