CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Terminology before 1.3.1 allows Remote Code Execution because popmedia is mishandled, as demonstrated by an unsafe "cat README.md" command when \e}pn is used. A popmedia control sequence can allow the malicious execution of executable file formats registered in the X desktop share MIME types (/usr/share/applications). The control sequence defers unknown file types to the handleunknownmedia() function, which executes xdg-open against the filename specified in the sequence. The use of xdg-open for all unknown file types allows executable file formats with a registered shared MIME type to be executed. An attacker can achieve remote code execution by introducing an executable file and a plain text file containing the control sequence through a fake software project (e.g., in Git or a tarball). When the control sequence is rendered (such as with cat), the executable file will be run.

These aren't security flaws, precisely, due to some of the other defaults that Fedora has that other distros/vendors may not, but upstream recently did some hardening to the defaults they provide (and we don't change) based on Martin Carpenter's report.

esys - address security concerns with environment and gdb

1. clear out environment as best is possible before executing anything. especially PATH and IFS are set to minimal base defaults. also use clearenv() if available and unsetenv()

2. remove gdb method as it's just too dangerous. run it as normal as the user and if the kernel / distro dny that - then sorry. too bad.
