In zsh before 5.8.1, an attacker can achieve code execution if they control a command output inside the prompt, as demonstrated by a %F argument. This occurs because of recursive PROMPT_SUBST expansion.
A vulnerability was found in zsh in the parsecolorchar() function of prompt.c file. This flaw allows an attacker to perform code execution if they control a command output inside the prompt, as stated by a %F%K argument. This occurs because of recursive PROMPT_SUBST expansion.
