draw.io Desktop allows Windows executable search-path hijacking

Impact

draw.io Desktop versions prior to 31.5.2 are vulnerable to search-path hijacking on Windows, allowing an attacker to execute controlled code when a victim opens a diagram from File Explorer. The attacker must have access to the victim's system to colocate a malicious powershell.bat or attrib.exe. This issue is fixed in version 31.5.2.

Original source description

draw.io Desktop is the official Electron build of draw.io. Prior to 31.5.2, the Windows application launched powershell and attrib by bare executable name from src/main/electron.js. When draw.io Desktop was not already running, opening a diagram from File Explorer made the diagram directory the current working directory, allowing a colocated attacker-controlled powershell.bat or attrib.exe to be resolved before the intended system executable. A victim who extracted an attacker-supplied archive and cold-opened its legitimate .drawio file could therefore execute attacker-controlled code when Local Fonts were enabled or when draft or backup attributes were updated. This issue is fixed in version 31.5.2.
