Overview

ghost is a publishing platform

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Command Injection. Sites using the sendmail transport as part of their mail config are vulnerable to remote command injection due to a vulnerability in the nodemailer dependency. Ghost defaults to the direct transport so this is only exploitable if the sendmail transport is explicitly used.
