Privilege Escalation Vulnerability in Visual Studio Code < 1.71.1 (CVE-2022-38020)
Visual Studio Code versions prior to 1.71.1 contain a privilege‑escalation flaw where a low‑privileged Windows attacker can place a malicious bash.exe in a special directory, causing the editor to load and execute the file, and the issue is fixed by upgrading to version 1.71.1 or later.
