CVE-2015-5474 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2015-5474):
  BitTorrent and uTorrent allow remote attackers to inject command line parameters and execute 
  arbitrary commands via a crafted URL using the (1) bittorrent or (2) magnet protocol.

Well, the 2010 version should contain this bug.
