Introduction to xdg-utils

xdg-utils is a set of command line tools that assist applications with a variety of desktop integration tasks. It is required for Linux Standards Base (LSB) conformance.

[警告]

警告

A security vulnerability exists in all versions of xdg-utils from version 1.1.0rc1 when handling mailto: URIs. An attacker could potentially send a victim a URI that automatically attaches a sensitive file to a new email. If a victim user does not notice that an attachment was added and sends the email, this could result in sensitive information disclosure.

To mitigate this flaw, either do not use mailto links at all, or always double-check in the user interface that there are no unwanted attachments before sending emails, especially when the email originates from clicking on a mailto link.

LFS や依存パッケージが本ブックに示す最新安定バージョンでなかった場合には、BLFS 開発版においては、パッケージのビルドや処理実行が適切に行われないことがあります。
