Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Command Injection via the print_gvars function in the PDB parser. An attacker can execute arbitrary system commands by embedding a newline byte in the PE section header name field of a crafted PDB file, which leads to the injection and execution of commands when the idp command processes the file.
