OS Command Injection

yt-dlp is an A youtube-dl fork with additional features and patches

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to OS Command Injection due to insufficient escaping of double quotes in the --exec command's handling of %q, leading to the expansion of environment variables. An attacker can execute arbitrary code by crafting specific input that exploits the environment variable expansion feature.

How to fix OS Command Injection?

Upgrade yt-dlp to version 2024.4.9 or higher.
