| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in virtualenv. This vulnerability allows arbitrary code execution if an attacker can influence the prompt text provided during environment creation. When a user subsequently activates the environment in a bash shell, the unvalidated prompt text is executed as shell syntax, allowing an attacker to execute commands with the privileges of the activating user.
