NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream spice-vdagent package and not the spice-vdagent package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

spice-vdagent up to and including 0.17.0 does not properly escape save directory before passing to shell, allowing local attacker with access to the session the agent runs in to inject arbitrary commands to be executed.
