| CVE-2024-30202 | 1 Gnu | 2 Emacs, Org Mode | 2025-05-01 | N/A | N/A |
| In Emacs before 29.3, arbitrary Lisp code is evaluated as part of turning on Org mode. This affects Org Mode before 9.6.23. | |||||
| CVE-2024-30205 | 2 Debian, Gnu | 3 Debian Linux, Emacs, Org Mode | 2025-05-01 | N/A | N/A |
| In Emacs before 29.3, Org mode considers contents of remote files to be trusted. This affects Org Mode before 9.6.23. | |||||
| CVE-2024-39331 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2025-04-30 | N/A | N/A |
| In Emacs before 29.4, org-link-expand-abbrev in lisp/ol.el expands a %(...) link abbrev even when it specifies an unsafe function, such as shell-command-to-string. This affects Org Mode before 9.7.5. | |||||
| CVE-2024-53920 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2025-04-30 | N/A | N/A |
| 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-2022-45939 | 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Gnu | 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Emacs | 2025-04-28 | N/A | 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-2022-48337 | 2 Debian, Gnu | 2 Debian Linux, Emacs | 2025-03-18 | N/A | 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-2022-48338 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2025-03-18 | N/A | 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-2022-48339 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2025-03-18 | N/A | 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-2023-27986 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2025-03-05 | N/A | 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 | N/A | 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 | N/A | 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. | |||||
| CVE-2000-0269 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2023-11-07 | 2.1 LOW | 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-2000-0270 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2023-11-07 | 3.6 LOW | 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-2000-0271 | 1 Gnu | 1 Emacs | 2023-11-07 | 4.6 MEDIUM | 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. | |||||
| CVE-2017-14482 | 2 Debian, Gnu | 2 Debian Linux, Emacs | 2019-10-03 | 6.8 MEDIUM | 8.8 HIGH |
| 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-2012-0035 | 2 Eric M Ludlam, Gnu | 2 Cedet, Emacs | 2018-12-07 | 9.3 HIGH | 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-2005-0100 | 1 Gnu | 2 Emacs, Xemacs | 2018-10-19 | 7.5 HIGH | 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-2008-2142 | 1 Gnu | 2 Emacs, Xemacs | 2018-10-11 | 6.8 MEDIUM | 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. | |||||
