CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedShescape versions prior to 2.1.14 and 3.0.1 on Unix systems configured to use Zsh are vulnerable to information disclosure through home directory expansion and extended glob syntax. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to enumerate files and directories, potentially leading to further information leaks. Users of Shescape, particularly those running on Zsh, should prioritize upgrading to the patched versions to mitigate this risk.

Original NVD Description
Shescape is a simple shell escape library for JavaScript. Prior to 2.1.14 and 3.0.1, this impacts users of Shescape on Unix systems that explicitly configure shell to Zsh, or true when the default shell is Zsh, using the escape and escapeAll. The Zsh options EXTENDED_GLOB and MAGIC_EQUAL_SUBST exacerbate the problem. In certain case, an attacker can leverage home directory expansion and extended glob syntax to obtain lists of files and directories on the system. Depending on what the command does, this may be used to leak more information. This issue is fixed in versions 2.1.14 and 3.0.1.
