+ <p>It seems that the whiptail, cdialog and kdialog backends apply
+ some improper escaping in their shell commands, causing special
+ characters present in menu item titles to be interpreted by the
+ shell. This includes the backtick evaluation operator, so this
+ constitutues a security issue, allowing execution of arbitrary
+ commands if an attacker has control over the text displayed in
+ a menu.</p>
