Description:
 Insufficient validation of untrusted input in Blink's mailto: handling in
 Google Chrome prior to 59.0.3071.86 for Linux, Windows, and Mac allowed a
 remote attacker to perform command injection via a crafted HTML page, a
 similar issue to CVE-2004-0121. For example, characters such as * have an
 incorrect interaction with xdg-email in xdg-utils, and a space character
 can be used in front of a command-line argument.
