Netrw Command-Execution Vulnerability
Netrw is prone to a command-execution vulnerability because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. Successfully exploiting this issue can allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user running the affected application.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to prevent the execution of arbitrary commands.
