Package        : org-mode
Version        : org-mode 9.1.14+dfsg-3+deb10u3
CVE ID         : CVE-2024-39331
Debian Bug     : 1074136

A vulnerability was discovered in Org-mode, a GNU Emacs major mode for
keeping notes, authoring documents, and maintaining to-do lists.

The org-link-expand-abbrev function expanded a %(...) link abbrev even
when the abbrev specified an unsafe function, such as
shell-command-to-string.

This could lead to arbitrary code execution as soon as an Org-mode
format file was opened, including one embedded in an e-mail message.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version
9.1.14+dfsg-3+deb10u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your org-mode packages.

For the detailed security status of org-mode please refer to
