### Impact The Tauri [`shell`](https://tauri.app/plugin/shell/) plugin exposes functionality to execute code and open programs on the system. The [`open`](https://tauri.app/reference/javascript/shell/#open) endpoint of this plugin is designed to allow open functionality with the system opener (e.g. `xdg-open` on Linux). This was meant to be restricted to a reasonable number of protocols like `https` or `mailto` by default.

By passing untrusted user input to the `open` endpoint these potentially dangerous protocols can be abused to gain remote code execution on the system. This either requires direct exposure of the endpoint to application users or code execution in the frontend of a Tauri application. You are not affected if you have e...
