Description

Deno versions 2.7.0 through 2.9.7 on Windows contain a command injection vulnerability in node:child_process where shell arguments are escaped for the wrong shell type. Attackers can inject OS commands by passing untrusted arguments with the shell option, allowing arbitrary command execution with Deno process privileges.

Techniques & Countermeasures

  • CWE-78•Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')

    The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component.
