Description:
 gnome-exe-thumbnailer before 0.9.5 is prone to a VBScript Injection when
 generating thumbnails for MSI files, aka the "Bad Taste" issue. There is a
 local attack if the victim uses the GNOME Files file manager, and navigates
 to a directory containing a .msi file with VBScript code in its filename.
