description

npm shell-quote is affected when an application passes its generated output to a shell. An attacker may cause unintended shell commands to run if they control a string with a line terminator placed after a comment token in the same quote() operation; parse()-based flows that combine untrusted values can create this condition.

mitigation

Upgrade npm shell-quote to version 1.11.0 or later. Until upgraded, reject line terminators in untrusted strings and omit tokens following comment tokens before calling quote().

fixed in 1.11.0
