NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rpm-plugin-systemd-inhibit package and not the rpm-plugin-systemd-inhibit package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A command injection flaw was found in rpm. Installing or rebuilding a source RPM whose source or spec file basenames contain a %() macro construct causes rpm to execute an attacker-controlled shell command via popen() while relocating the source file list. This allows arbitrary command execution as the invoking (typically non-root) user, simply by installing, rebuilding, or otherwise processing an untrusted .src.rpm.
