Freshness: upstream tracker timestamp is available; use API updated time as primary recency signal.
A flaw was found in launch-editor, a tool that allows users to open files with line numbers in an editor from Node.js. Due to insufficient sanitization of the `file` argument in the `launchEditor` function, an attacker can execute arbitrary commands on Windows systems by supplying a filename that contains special characters. This can lead to a complete compromise of the affected system.
