CVE-2022-25855Public exploit

Local command execution via unsanitized devInstall input

Published Feb 6, 2023 · Updated Mar 25, 2025

OS command injection in Choo create-choo-app3 1.12.3 and earlier allows local users to execute commands through devInstall input. The devInstall function incorporates an unsanitized dependency-array element containing shell metacharacters into an operating-system command. Exploitation requires invoking the local package API with attacker-controlled dependency input, and injected commands run with the invoking process's privileges.
