CVE-2023-40168

Summary

CVE-2023-40168 is a vulnerability affecting TurboWarp Desktop applications before version 1.8.0.

The issue was resolved in commit `55e07e99b59` following an initial fix that was later reverted. Users are encouraged to upgrade to version 1.8.0 or later to mitigate the risk.
