RHSA-2026:50850 PUBLISHED CVSS 7.5 HIGH

A flaw was found in the shell-quote component. The quote() function did not properly validate object-token inputs, allowing line terminators to pass unescaped into the output. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing specially crafted input, which a POSIX shell would interpret as a command separator. This could lead to command injection, enabling the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.
