LilyPond before 2.24 allows attackers to bypass the -dsafe protection mechanism via output-def-lookup or output-def-scope, as demonstrated by dangerous Scheme code in a .ly file that causes arbitrary code execution during conversion to a different file format. NOTE: in 2.24 and later versions, safe mode is removed, and the product no longer tries to block code execution when external files are used.

The remote openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2023:0137-1 advisory.

  - The mkdir procedure of GNU Guile temporarily changed the process' umask to zero. During that time window,     in a multithreaded application, other threads could end up creating files with insecure permissions. For     example, mkdir without the optional mode argument would create directories as 0777. This is fixed in Guile     2.0.13. Prior versions are affected. (CVE-2016-8605)
