Summary

Magic: The Gathering Arena (Windows/Steam client; 2026.59.30.12801.127931.6 and certain later 2026.60.x builds) passes a server-supplied URL from a home-screen carousel GoToExternalUrl action directly to the Windows shell via Application.OpenURL/ShellExecuteW without validating the URI scheme or domain. A hypothetical attacker able to control the carousel content delivered to clients can cause arbitrary registered URI-scheme handlers to be invoked on client hosts with no user interaction. For example, one might expect that the carousel content only has https: URIs, not ms-calculator: URIs.

Risk Assessment

An attacker could exploit this to launch arbitrary applications or commands on the victim's machine, potentially leading to system compromise, malware installation, or data theft. The lack of user interaction increases the risk.

Recommendation

Update the Magic: The Gathering Arena client to a patched version. Until then, avoid clicking carousel content and limit trust in server-provided content.
