Mozilla Spos has a ocal directory executable lookup in sops (Windows-only). The problem has been resolved in v3.7.1. Windows users using the sops direct editor option (sops file.yaml) can have a local executable named either vi, vim, or nano executed if running sops from cmd.exe This attack is only viable if an attacker is able to place a malicious binary within the directory you are running sops from. As well, this attack will only work when using cmd.exe or the Windows C library SearchPath function. This is a result of these Windows tools including . within their PATH by default.
