Details

Command Injection Vulnerability in find-exec Older versions of the package are vulnerable to Command Injection as an attacker controlled parameter. As a result, attackers may run malicious commands. For example: ``` const find = require("find-exec"); find("mplayer; touch hacked") ``` This creates a file named "hacked" on the filesystem. You should never allow users to control commands to find, since this package attempts to run every command provided. Thanks to @miguelafmonteiro for reporting.
