CVE-2026-32094 Details
Description
Shescape is a simple shell escape library for JavaScript. Prior to 2.1.10, Shescape#escape() does not escape square-bracket glob syntax for Bash, BusyBox sh, and Dash. Applications that interpolate the return value directly into a shell command string can cause an attacker-controlled value like secret[12] to expand into multiple filesystem matches instead of a single literal argument, turning one argument into multiple trusted-pathname matches. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.1.10.
A vulnerability exists in Shescape, a shell escape library for JavaScript, in versions prior to 2.1.10. The issue arises because the Shescape#escape() function fails to properly escape square-bracket glob syntax for Bash, BusyBox sh, and Dash. This oversight allows attacker-controlled values to be interpreted as multiple filesystem matches, potentially leading to unintended command behavior. The vulnerability is particularly concerning for applications that directly interpolate the escape() return value into shell command strings.
Users can upgrade to Shescape version 2.1.10 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
