OS Command Injection in async-git
Impact
The async-git package before 1.13.2 for Node.js allows OS Command Injection via shell metacharacters, as demonstrated by git.reset and git.tag. This issue may lead to remote code execution if a client of the library calls the vulnerable method with untrusted input. Ensure to sanitize untrusted user input before passing it to one of the vulnerable functions as a workaround or update async-git to version 1.13.1.
