Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for aegisub.

CVE-2026-92705[0]:
| Aegisub is a cross-platform advanced subtitle editor. From 3.2.0 to
| 3.4.2, Aegisub automatically loads Automation scripts referenced by
| `Automation Scripts` metadata in `ASS` subtitle projects without
| asking whether the user trusts the scripts or their authors. An
| attacker can distribute a crafted `ASS` file together with a
| referenced malicious Automation script, and opening the `AS`  file
| executes arbitrary code with the privileges of the Aegisub process.
| From 3.4.0 to 3.4.2, inconsistent handling of embedded `NUL`
| characters between extension validation and filesystem operations
| additionally allows a crafted `ASS/Lua` polyglot to reference and
| execute itself as a single-file variant. The vulnerability is fixed
| in Aegisub 3.5.0.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
