NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openshot-qt package and not the openshot-qt package as distributed by Debian.

Versions of the package angular from 1.2.21 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) via the angular.copy() utility function due to the usage of an insecure regular expression. Exploiting this vulnerability is possible by a large carefully-crafted input, which can result in catastrophic backtracking.
