Prior to version 6.0.0, the Windows fallback path in src/npmRunner.ts, used when npm_execpath does not provide the npm CLI path, can construct a shell command containing an untrusted value from the --workspace option. When an attacker can influence that option and the fallback npm execution path is reached, shell metacharacters in the workspace value can execute arbitrary operating-system commands with the privileges of the user running the CLI, allowing data access, file modification, or service disruption. This issue is fixed in version 6.0.0.","cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"cvssVector":null,"cwes":["CWE-78"],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-node-npm/commit/15d3beb5bcd2b0b6eccfdf31192f5103b3f12c0f","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-node-npm/pull/1489","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-node-npm/releases/tag/v6.0.0","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-node-npm/security/advisories/GHSA-q69g-4hcv-6jg4","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[{"url":"https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-node-npm/commit/15d3beb5bcd2b0b6eccfdf31192f5103b3f12c0f","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-node-npm/pull/1489","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-node-npm/releases/tag/v6.0.0","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/CycloneDX/cyclonedx-node-npm/security/advisories/GHSA-q69g-4hcv-6jg4","tags":[]}],"hasPoc":true,"ai":null}
