Blender .kml or .kmz file command execution
| blender-kml-kmz-command-execution (32778) |  High Risk |
Description:
Blender could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the system, caused by improper validation of user-supplied by the kmz_ImportWithMesh.py script. By persuading a user to import a specially-crafted .kml or .kmz file, a remote attacker could inject and execute arbitrary Python commands on the system.
