CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe task synthesis component in projen prior to version 0.103.0 is vulnerable to command injection, allowing context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary commands on developer workstations or CI runners through malicious project configuration values or repository file names. This high-severity vulnerability poses a significant risk to developers and organizations using projen for project automation, particularly those with continuous integration setups. Users must prioritize upgrading to version 0.103.0 and re-synthesizing their projects to mitigate this risk effectively.

Original NVD Description
Improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command in the task synthesis component in projen before 0.103.0 might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary commands on a developer workstation or continuous integration runner via shell metacharacters in project configuration values and repository file names that are interpolated into generated task definitions. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 0.103.0 and then re-synthesize the project so that .projen/tasks.json is regenerated with the corrected task definitions. Upgrading alone is not sufficient because the generated task definition file is committed to the repository.
