If (attacker-controlled) user input is given, it is possible for an attacker to execute arbitrary commands. This is due to use of the child_process exec function without input sanitization. Running this PoC will cause the command touch success to be executed, leading to the creation of a file called success.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":8.8},"cwes":["CWE-78"],"references":["https://github.com/ssnau/killport/blob/5268f23ea8f152e47182b263d8f7ef20c12a9f28/index.js%23L9","https://github.com/ssnau/killport/commit/bec8e371f170a12e11cd222ffc7a6e1ae9942638","https://snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-JS-KILLPORT-1078535","https://github.com/ssnau/killport/blob/5268f23ea8f152e47182b263d8f7ef20c12a9f28/index.js%23L9","https://github.com/ssnau/killport/commit/bec8e371f170a12e11cd222ffc7a6e1ae9942638"],"products":["killport_project:killport"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:15:50.279857260+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2021-23360","score":0.0234,"percentile":0.83618,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-fc42-h7q4-qp8h","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-fc42-h7q4-qp8h","summary":"Command Injection in killport","modified":"2026-07-08T06:49:34.573648300Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"killport","purl":"pkg:npm/killport","ranges":["<1.0.2"],"fixed":["1.0.2"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
