DescriptionNVD

KDE Dolphin before 25.12.3 allows applications in a Flatpak (or with AppArmor confinement) to open folders outside of the application sandbox without additional scrutiny. Dolphin's implementation of the FileManager1 protocol allows the path given to be any type of file, including scripts or executables. (By default, Dolphin will then prompt the user to determine if they want to launch a script or executable; however, the intended behavior is to block the attempted action, not present a consent prompt.)

AnalysisAI

KDE Dolphin before 25.12.3 allows sandboxed applications (running under Flatpak or AppArmor confinement) to bypass sandbox restrictions and open arbitrary files outside their containment boundary through the FileManager1 D-Bus protocol implementation. An attacker controlling a sandboxed application can exploit this to access sensitive files or execute scripts with user interaction, circumventing the intended isolation model.
