Summary
Improper handling of double quotes in file name in Diffy in Windows environment
Details

The function that calls the diff tool in versions of Diffy prior to 3.4.1 does not properly handle double quotes in a filename when run in a Windows environment. This allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted string.
