CVE-2022-23465: Attacker could modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malici

An issue in Mintty v.3.6.4 and before allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via crafted commands to the terminal.

Terminal character injection in Mintty before 3.6.3 allows code execution via unescaped output to the terminal.

### Impact Attacker could modify the window title via a certain character escape sequence and then insert it back to the command line in the user's terminal, e.g. when the user views a file containing the malicious sequence, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands. ### Credit These bugs were found and disclosed by David Leadbeater <[email protected]> (@dgl at Github.com) ### Patches Fixed in version ce596e0dc8cdb288bc7ed5c6a59011ee3a8dc171 ### Workarounds There are no workarounds available ### References Similar exploits to this existed in the past, for terminal emulators: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2003-0063 https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2008-2383 Additional background and information is also available: https://marc.info/?l=bugtraq&m=104612710031920&w=2 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=510030

ConEmu through 220807 and Cmder before 1.3.21 report the title of the terminal, including control characters, which allows an attacker to change the title and then execute it as commands.

In Zutty before 0.13, DECRQSS in text written to the terminal can achieve arbitrary code execution.

CRLF injection vulnerability in xterm allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary commands via LF (aka \n) characters surrounding a command name within a Device Control Request Status String (DECRQSS) escape sequence in a text file, a related issue to CVE-2003-0063 and CVE-2003-0071.
