A fix is available — apply it.

The "s init" command in Serverless-Devs @serverless-devs/s <= 3.1.11 passes unsanitized user input to child_process.spawn() with shell: true. A URL ending in ".git" bypasses the only input check, allowing OS command injection when a user runs "s init" with an attacker-controlled argument.

Exploitation public PoC (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable yes (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact total (CISA Vulnrichment). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
