Package        : simgear
Version        : 1:2020.3.6+dfsg-1+deb11u1
CVE ID         : CVE-2025-0781

A security vulnerability has been discovered in simgear, a collection of
libraries for constructing simulation and visualization applications
such as FlightGear.

An attacker can bypass the sandboxing of Nasal scripts and arbitrarily
write to any file path that the user has permission to modify at the
operating-system level.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
1:2020.3.6+dfsg-1+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your simgear packages.
