NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream redmine package and not the redmine package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

Redmine before 3.2.9, 3.3.x before 3.3.6, and 3.4.x before 3.4.4 does not block the --config and --debugger flags to the Mercurial hg program, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands (through the Mercurial adapter) via vectors involving a branch whose name begins with a --config= or --debugger= substring, a related issue to CVE-2017-17536.
