Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for atril.

CVE-2023-52076[0]:
| Atril Document Viewer is the default document reader of the MATE
| desktop environment for Linux. A path traversal and arbitrary file
| write vulnerability exists in versions of Atril prior to 1.26.2.
| This vulnerability is capable of writing arbitrary files anywhere on
| the filesystem to which the user opening a crafted document has
| access. The only limitation is that this vulnerability cannot be
| exploited to overwrite existing files, but that doesn't stop an
| attacker from achieving Remote Command Execution on the target
| system. Version 1.26.2 of Atril contains a patch for this
| vulnerability.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
