Description
Carter Sande discovered that kitty incorrectly handled escape sequences in desktop notifications. A remote attacker could possibly use this to execute arbitrary commands. Kitty version < 0.26.2 is vulnerable. An upgrade to 0.26.2/0.26.3 will fix the problem.
Problem is fixed in commit https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/commit/f05783e64d5fa62e1aed603e8d69aced5e49824f
