Critical (9.8) in asciidoctor-include-ext project asciidoctor-include-ext. EPSS 2.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in asciidoctor-include-ext 0.4.0.

Asciidoctor-include-ext is Asciidoctor’s standard include processor reimplemented as an extension. Versions prior to 0.4.0, when used to render user-supplied input in AsciiDoc markup, may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary system commands on the host operating system. This attack is possible even when `allow-uri-read` is disabled! The problem has been patched in the referenced commits.
