Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2015-02-19 09:23:17 UTC 
From ${URL} :

A Debian user reported a different command injection issue recently, and proposed a patch too:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=5;filename=xdg-open.diff;att=1;bug=777722

Seems to do with local variable usage that isn't really local.  For more detail, see:
https://bugs.debian.org/777722


@maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.

In 1.1.1 xdg-open has been reworked to be safer, and I cannot reproduce test case. It's being stabilised in bug #558676.
