Is this the well documented Windows URI security flaw dicussed about 2007?

If so, isn't that resolved already?

Hi everybody!

12 years ago a security problem was introduced into lilypond-invoke-editor.
On 2017/11/15 the problem was reported to the bug-lilypond mailing
list by Gabriel Corona.

If you decided to install lilypond-invoke-editor helper as a general
URI helper, you _are_ affected.

If you decided to install lilypond-invoke-editor to only handle
textedit URIs (or if you do not use it at all) you are _not_ affected.

If you do not know if you are affected:

1.: locate lilypond-invoke-editor

2. Open lilypond-invoke-editor in your favorite text editor. Search for

       (if (is-textedit-uri? uri)
         (run-editor uri)
         (run-browser uri)))))

and replace it with

       (if (is-textedit-uri? uri)
         (run-editor uri)))))
