CVE-2021-40084: opensysusers through 0.6 does not safely use eval on files in sysusers ...

Severity: Critical

CVSS Score: 9.8

opensysusers through 0.6 does not safely use eval on files in sysusers.d that may contain shell metacharacters. For example, it allows command execution via a crafted GECOS field whereas systemd-sysusers (a program with the same specification) does not do that.
