Description

Unity Editor 2019.1 through 6000.3 could allow remote attackers to exploit file loading and Local File Inclusion (LFI) mechanisms via a crafted local application because of an Untrusted Search Path. This could permit unauthorized manipulation of runtime resources and third-party integrations. The issue could affect applications built using Unity and deployed across Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms.
