jsii-diff is vulnerable to Command Injection
78
High Risk
This Affects:
jsii-diffTL;DR
jsii-diff accepts npm: package specifiers and interpolates the package string into shell-executed npm install and npm show commands. A crafted package specifier can inject shell metacharacters and execute additional commands when jsii-diff downloads a package for comparison. This can compromise developer machines or CI jobs that run jsii-diff on untrusted package input. The fix validates the npm package specifier against an allowlist before invoking shell-backed npm commands.

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
