CVE-2022-48337

      GNU Emacs through 28.2 allows attackers to execute
      commands via shell metacharacters in the name of a
      source-code file, because lib-src/etags.c uses the
      system C library function in its implementation of the
      etags program. For example, a victim may use the
      "etags -u *" command (suggested in the etags
      documentation) in a situation where the current working
      directory has contents that depend on untrusted input.

CVE-2022-48338

      An issue was discovered in GNU Emacs through 28.2. In
      ruby-mode.el, the ruby-find-library-file function has a
      local command injection vulnerability. The
      ruby-find-library-file function is an interactive
      function, and bound to C-c C-f. Inside the function, the
      external command gem is called through
      shell-command-to-string, but the feature-name parameters
      are not escaped. Thus, malicious Ruby source files may
      cause commands to be executed.

CVE-2022-48339

      An issue was discovered in GNU Emacs through
      28.2. htmlfontify.el has a command injection
      vulnerability. In the hfy-istext-command function, the
      parameter file and parameter srcdir come from external
      input, and parameters are not escaped. If a file name or
      directory name contains shell metacharacters, code may
      be executed.
