The host is installed with Skype before 3.8.0.139 and is prone to remote code-execution vulnerability. A flaw is present in the application, which fails to handle URI with a dangerous extension that uses a different case. Successful exploitation could allow user-assisted remote attackers to bypass warning dialogs and possibly execute arbitrary code.
