NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kmail package and not the kmail package as distributed by Ubuntu.

An issue was discovered in KDE KMail before 19.12.3. By using the proprietary (non-RFC6068) "mailto?attach=..." parameter, a website (or other source of mailto links) can make KMail attach local files to a composed email message without showing a warning to the user, as demonstrated by an attach=.bash_history value.
