⚙️ Description *
mrgit was vulnerable against arbitrary command injection cause some user supplied inputs were taken and executed with shelljs function without prior validation. After update Arbitary Code Execution is avoided
💻 Technical Description *
Comands are executed using shelljs without sanitization, leading to Arbitrary Code Execution, missing sanitization was added
🐛 Proof of Concept (PoC) *
Install the package and run the below code:
const diff = require( './lib/commands/diff' );
diff.execute({arguments:['test; touch HACKED; #'], toolOptions:{packages:'', }, repository:{directory:''}})
It will create a file HACKED in the working directory.

🔥 Proof of Fix (PoF) *
After fix no file is created
