AI-suggested
Until a fix is available, users should be cautious about running or displaying process command lines from untrusted local users to avoid terminal escape sequence injection.
Description
dalance procs versions up to 0.14.12 do not sanitize escape sequences in process command lines before displaying them. This allows local attackers to include malicious ANSI or OSC escape sequences in command line arguments, which are then rendered unmodified on other users' terminals.
