CRITICAL 9.8EPSS 2.57%

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.57%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

pulverizr through 0.7.0 allows execution of arbitrary commands. Within "lib/job.js", the variable "filename" can be controlled by the attacker. This function uses the variable "filename" to construct the argument of the exec call without any sanitization. In order to successfully exploit this vulnerability, an attacker will need to create a new file with the same name as the attack command.
