CVE-2019-17068

PuTTY before 0.73 mishandles the bracketed paste mode protection mechanism, which may allow a session to be affected by malicious clipboard content.

Weakness

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.
