GHSA-49vv-6q7q-w5cfDuplicate Advisory: OS Command Injection in Strapi2021-12-10ghsa · osvUS
### Duplicate Advisory This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-9p2w-rmx4-9mw7. This link is maintained to preserve external references. ### Original Description The Strapi framework before 3.0.0-beta.17.8 is vulnerable to Remote Code Execution in the Install and Uninstall Plugin components of the Admin panel, because it does not sanitize the plugin name, and attackers can inject arbitrary shell commands to be executed by the execa function.
GHSA-9p2w-rmx4-9mw7Command Injection in strapi2020-09-04ghsa · osvUS
Versions of `strapi` before 3.0.0-beta.17.8 are vulnerable to Command Injection. The package fails to sanitize plugin names in the `/admin/plugins/install/` route. This may allow an authenticated attacker with admin privileges to run arbitrary commands in the server. ## Recommendation Upgrade to version 3.0.0-beta.17.8 or later
