What is CVE-2017-15108?

The spice-vdagent component up to version 0.17.0 is susceptible to a command injection vulnerability due to inadequate escaping of the save directory before it is passed to the shell. This weakness allows a local attacker, equipped with access to the session in which the agent operates, to execute arbitrary commands, potentially leading to unauthorized system control or data exposure.

Affected Version(s)
