CVE-2018-1000156 not yet assigned priority: Debian including 1 source packages (patch), 5 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 5.
GNU Patch version 2.7.6 contains an input validation vulnerability when processing patch files, specifically the EDITOR_PROGRAM invocation (using ed) can result in code execution. This attack appear to be exploitable via a patch file processed via the patch utility. This is similar to FreeBSD's CVE-2015-1418 however although they share a common ancestry the code bases have diverged over time.
