CVE-2022-45939 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Gnu and 1 more 5 Debian Linux, Fedora, Emacs and 2 more 2025-04-28 7.8 High
GNU Emacs through 28.2 allows attackers to execute commands via shell metacharacters in the name of a source-code file, because lib-src/etags.c uses the system C library function in its implementation of the ctags program. For example, a victim may use the "ctags *" command (suggested in the ctags documentation) in a situation where the current working directory has contents that depend on untrusted input.
CVE-2014-9483 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-20 N/A
Emacs 24.4 allows remote attackers to bypass security restrictions.
CVE-2017-14482 3 Debian, Gnu, Redhat 3 Debian Linux, Emacs, Enterprise Linux 2025-04-20 N/A
GNU Emacs before 25.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via email with crafted "Content-Type: text/enriched" data containing an x-display XML element that specifies execution of shell commands, related to an unsafe text/enriched extension in lisp/textmodes/enriched.el, and unsafe Gnus support for enriched and richtext inline MIME objects in lisp/gnus/mm-view.el. In particular, an Emacs user can be instantly compromised by reading a crafted email message (or Usenet news article).
CVE-2017-1000383 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-20 N/A
GNU Emacs version 25.3.1 (and other versions most likely) ignores umask when creating a backup save file ("[ORIGINAL_FILENAME]~") resulting in files that may be world readable or otherwise accessible in ways not intended by the user running the emacs binary.
CVE-2014-3423 2 Gnu, Mageia Project 2 Emacs, Mageia 2025-04-12 N/A
lisp/net/browse-url.el in GNU Emacs 24.3 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/Mosaic.##### temporary file.
CVE-2014-3422 2 Gnu, Mageia Project 2 Emacs, Mageia 2025-04-12 N/A
lisp/emacs-lisp/find-gc.el in GNU Emacs 24.3 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file under /tmp/esrc/.
CVE-2014-3424 2 Gnu, Mageia Project 2 Emacs, Mageia 2025-04-12 N/A
lisp/net/tramp-sh.el in GNU Emacs 24.3 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a /tmp/tramp.##### temporary file.
CVE-2014-3421 2 Gnu, Mageia Project 2 Emacs, Mageia 2025-04-12 N/A
lisp/gnus/gnus-fun.el in GNU Emacs 24.3 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/gnus.face.ppm temporary file.
CVE-2012-1103 2 Gnu, Notmuchmail 2 Emacs, Notmuch 2025-04-11 N/A
emacs/notmuch-mua.el in Notmuch before 0.11.1, when using the Emacs interface, allows user-assisted remote attackers to read arbitrary files via crafted MML tags, which are not properly quoted in an email reply cna cause the files to be attached to the message.
CVE-2012-3479 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-11 N/A
lisp/files.el in Emacs 23.2, 23.3, 23.4, and 24.1 automatically executes eval forms in local-variable sections when the enable-local-variables option is set to :safe, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary Emacs Lisp code via a crafted file.
CVE-2010-0825 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-11 N/A
lib-src/movemail.c in movemail in emacs 22 and 23 allows local users to read, modify, or delete arbitrary mailbox files via a symlink attack, related to improper file-permission checks.
CVE-2012-0035 2 Eric M Ludlam, Gnu 2 Cedet, Emacs 2025-04-11 N/A
Untrusted search path vulnerability in EDE in CEDET before 1.0.1, as used in GNU Emacs before 23.4 and other products, allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted Lisp expression in a Project.ede file in the directory, or a parent directory, of an opened file.
CVE-2008-1694 1 Gnu 2 Emacs, Sccs 2025-04-09 N/A
vcdiff in Emacs 20.7 to 22.1.50, when used with SCCS, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.
CVE-2008-2142 1 Gnu 2 Emacs, Xemacs 2025-04-09 N/A
Emacs 21 and XEmacs automatically load and execute .flc (fast lock) files that are associated with other files that are edited within Emacs, which allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-2833 3 Debian, Gnu, Mandrakesoft 4 Debian Linux, Emacs, Mandrake Linux and 1 more 2025-04-09 N/A
Emacs 21 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via certain crafted images, as demonstrated via a GIF image in vm mode, related to image size calculation.
CVE-2007-5795 2 Debian, Gnu 2 Debian Linux, Emacs 2025-04-09 N/A
The hack-local-variables function in Emacs before 22.2, when enable-local-variables is set to :safe, does not properly search lists of unsafe or risky variables, which might allow user-assisted attackers to bypass intended restrictions and modify critical program variables via a file containing a Local variables declaration.
CVE-2007-6109 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-09 N/A
Stack-based buffer overflow in emacs allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly have unspecified other impact via a large precision value in an integer format string specifier to the format function, as demonstrated via a certain "emacs -batch -eval" command line.
CVE-2005-0100 2 Gnu, Redhat 3 Emacs, Xemacs, Enterprise Linux 2025-04-03 N/A
Format string vulnerability in the movemail utility in (1) Emacs 20.x, 21.3, and possibly other versions, and (2) XEmacs 21.4 and earlier, allows remote malicious POP3 servers to execute arbitrary code via crafted packets.
CVE-2003-1232 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-03 N/A
Emacs 21.2.1 does not prompt or warn the user before executing Lisp code in the local variables section of a text file, which allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary commands, as demonstrated using the mode-name variable.
CVE-2000-0271 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-03 N/A
read-passwd and other Lisp functions in Emacs 20 do not properly clear the history of recently typed keys, which allows an attacker to read unencrypted passwords.
