Summary: Qutebrowser CSRF Vulnerability
Details: qutebrowser before version 1.4.1 is vulnerable to a cross-site request forgery flaw that allows websites to access `qute://*` URLs. A malicious website could exploit this to load a `qute://settings/set` URL, which then sets `editor.command` to a bash script, resulting in arbitrary code execution.
