Description

Mitigating CWE-426 vulnerability in the example NSIS template by using a fully qualified path instead of naked cmd.exe.

Many dev teams build up on this example for their custom installers. This propagates the vulnerability downstream to other projects.

Checklist - did you ...

  • Add a file to the news directory (using the template) for the next release's release notes?
  • Add / update necessary tests?
  • Add / update outdated documentation?
