Upgrade nuxt to version 3.12.4 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) due to insufficient validation of the path parameter in the NuxtTestComponentWrapper. An attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript on the server side, which allows them to execute arbitrary commands when the victim opens a malicious web page in the browser while running the test locally.
Note:
This vulnerability affects only users who open a malicious web page in the browser while running the test locally.
Since web pages can send requests to arbitrary addresses, a malicious web page can repeatedly try to exploit this vulnerability, which then triggers the exploit when the test server starts.
