CVE-2000-0270 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-03 N/A
The make-temp-name Lisp function in Emacs 20 creates temporary files with predictable names, which allows attackers to conduct a symlink attack.
CVE-2000-0269 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-04-03 N/A
Emacs 20 does not properly set permissions for a slave PTY device when starting a new subprocess, which allows local users to read or modify communications between Emacs and the subprocess.
CVE-2001-1301 2 Gnu, Xemacs 2 Emacs, Xemacs 2025-04-03 N/A
rcs2log, as used in Emacs 20.4, xemacs 21.1.10 and other versions before 21.4, and possibly other packages, allows local users to modify files of other users via a symlink attack on a temporary file.
CVE-2022-48339 2 Gnu, Redhat 3 Emacs, Enterprise Linux, Rhel Eus 2025-03-18 7.8 High
An issue was discovered in GNU Emacs through 28.2. htmlfontify.el has a command injection vulnerability. In the hfy-istext-command function, the parameter file and parameter srcdir come from external input, and parameters are not escaped. If a file name or directory name contains shell metacharacters, code may be executed.
CVE-2022-48338 2 Gnu, Redhat 2 Emacs, Enterprise Linux 2025-03-18 7.3 High
An issue was discovered in GNU Emacs through 28.2. In ruby-mode.el, the ruby-find-library-file function has a local command injection vulnerability. The ruby-find-library-file function is an interactive function, and bound to C-c C-f. Inside the function, the external command gem is called through shell-command-to-string, but the feature-name parameters are not escaped. Thus, malicious Ruby source files may cause commands to be executed.
CVE-2022-48337 3 Debian, Gnu, Redhat 4 Debian Linux, Emacs, Enterprise Linux and 1 more 2025-03-18 9.8 Critical
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 etags program. For example, a victim may use the "etags -u *" command (suggested in the etags documentation) in a situation where the current working directory has contents that depend on untrusted input.
CVE-2024-53920 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-03-13 7.8 High
In elisp-mode.el in GNU Emacs before 30.1, a user who chooses to invoke elisp-completion-at-point (for code completion) on untrusted Emacs Lisp source code can trigger unsafe Lisp macro expansion that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code. (This unsafe expansion also occurs if a user chooses to enable on-the-fly diagnosis that byte compiles untrusted Emacs Lisp source code.)
CVE-2023-27986 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-03-05 7.8 High
emacsclient-mail.desktop in Emacs 28.1 through 28.2 is vulnerable to Emacs Lisp code injections through a crafted mailto: URI with unescaped double-quote characters. It is fixed in 29.0.90.
CVE-2023-27985 1 Gnu 1 Emacs 2025-03-05 7.8 High
emacsclient-mail.desktop in Emacs 28.1 through 28.2 is vulnerable to shell command injections through a crafted mailto: URI. This is related to lack of compliance with the Desktop Entry Specification. It is fixed in 29.0.90
CVE-2023-2491 2 Gnu, Redhat 5 Emacs, Enterprise Linux, Enterprise Linux Eus and 2 more 2025-01-22 7.8 High
A flaw was found in the Emacs text editor. Processing a specially crafted org-mode code with the "org-babel-execute:latex" function in ob-latex.el can result in arbitrary command execution. This CVE exists because of a CVE-2023-28617 security regression for the emacs package in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.8 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2.
