Upgrade shescape to version 2.1.14, 3.0.1 or higher.
Overview
shescape is a simple shell escape library
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Command Injection in the escape and escapeAll functions when used on Unix systems with the shell explicitly configured to Zsh, or when the default shell is Zsh. An attacker can obtain lists of files and directories on the system by leveraging home directory expansion and extended glob syntax.
Note: This is only exploitable if the shell is set to Zsh and the Zsh options EXTENDED_GLOB and MAGIC_EQUAL_SUBST are enabled.
