CVE-2018-6353 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Debian:11 electrum to version 3.2.3-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream electrum package and not the electrum package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.
The Python console in Electrum through 2.9.4 and 3.x through 3.0.5 supports arbitrary Python code without considering (1) social-engineering attacks in which a user pastes code that they do not understand and (2) code pasted by a physically proximate attacker at an unattended workstation, which makes it easier for attackers to steal Bitcoin via hook code that runs at a later time when the wallet password has been entered, a different vulnerability than CVE-2018-1000022.
