Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.08%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

All versions of the package node-qpdf are vulnerable to Command Injection such that the package-exported method encrypt() fails to sanitize its parameter input, which later flows into a sensitive command execution API. As a result, attackers may inject malicious commands once they can specify the input pdf file path.
