    Fossil does not properly validate SSH sync protocol URLs.
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker, by enticing a user to open a specially crafted URL,
      could possibly execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user
      running the application.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
