Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-10-13 22:15 - Updated: 2026-10-08 12:10
Severity
7.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
yt-grabber-tui is a terminal user interface application for downloading videos. In versions before 1.0-rc, the application allows users to configure the path to the yt-dlp executable via the path_to_yt_dlp configuration setting. An attacker with write access to the configuration file or the filesystem location of the configured executable can replace the executable with malicious code or create a symlink to an arbitrary executable. When the application invokes yt-dlp, the malicious code is executed with the privileges of the user running yt-grabber-tui. This vulnerability has been patched in version 1.0-rc.

Un atacante con acceso de escritura al archivo de configuraci\u00f3n o a la ubicaci\u00f3n en el sistema de archivos del ejecutable configurado puede reemplazar el ejecutable con c\u00f3digo malicioso o crear un enlace simb\u00f3lico a un ejecutable arbitrario. Cuando la aplicaci\u00f3n invoca yt-dlp, el c\u00f3digo malicioso se ejecuta con los privilegios del usuario que ejecuta yt-grabber-tui. Esta vulnerabilidad ha sido parcheada en la versi\u00f3n 1.0-rc."
