NOTE: while this issue is triggered on the command line by the gedit user, it has been reported that web browsers and email clients could be configured to provide a file name as an argument to gedit, so there is a valid attack that crosses security boundaries.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["http://marc.info/?l=bugtraq&m=111661117701398&w=2","http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200506-09.xml","http://www.debian.org/security/2005/dsa-753","http://www.novell.com/linux/security/advisories/2005_36_sudo.html","http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHSA-2005-499.html"],"products":["gnome:gedit"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T19:39:29.870204089+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2005-1686","score":0.07655,"percentile":0.94582,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
