Submit #860239: Node.js @publint/pack 0.1.4 OS Command Injectioninfo

TitleNode.js @publint/pack 0.1.4 OS Command Injection
Description@publint/pack constructs package-manager commands as shell strings and executes them with child_process.exec(). The documented destination option is interpolated directly into the shell command. Because the command is executed by a shell, command substitution in the destination path is evaluated. Tested version: @publint/pack 0.1.4 Public API used: import { pack } from '@publint/pack' Relevant code path: // src/node/pack.js let command = `${packageManager} pack` // ... command += ` --pack-destination \"${packDestination}\"` const output = await util.promisify(cp.exec)(command, { cwd: dir })
