Upgrade kill-port-process to version 2.2.0 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Command Injection. An attacker able to control the port number can insert a shell command instead of a port number, due to weak sanitisation. The command will run under the root user, since the root user is the only user able to execute the kill command.
