    Remote Code Execution (RCE)

    org.webjars.npm:shell-quote is a package used to quote and parse shell commands.

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE). An attacker can inject unescaped shell metacharacters through a regex designed to support Windows drive letters. If the output of this package is passed to a real shell as a quoted argument to a command with exec(), an attacker can inject arbitrary commands. This is because the Windows drive letter regex character class is {A-z] instead of the correct {A-Za-z]. Several shell metacharacters exist in the space between capital letter Z and lower case letter a, such as the backtick character.

    How to fix Remote Code Execution (RCE)?

    Upgrade org.webjars.npm:shell-quote to version 1.7.4 or higher.
