CVE-2014-3121 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Ubuntu security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Ubuntu:15.10.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rxvt-unicode package and not the rxvt-unicode package as distributed by Ubuntu.
rxvt-unicode before 9.20 does not properly handle OSC escape sequences, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to manipulate arbitrary X window properties and execute arbitrary commands.
