Thunar 'thunar_transfer_job_copy_node()' Format String Vulnerability

Thunar is prone to an unspecified format-string vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before passing it as a format specifier to a formatted-printing function.

An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the vulnerable application. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in a denial-of-service condition.

Thunar 1.3.0 is vulnerable.
