NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream k4dirstat package and not the k4dirstat package as distributed by Debian.
kcleanup.cpp in KDirStat 2.7.0 does not properly quote strings when deleting a directory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a " (double quote) character in the directory name, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-2528.
