{"id":"GHSA-xp63-6vf5-xf3v","summary":"Command injection in codecov (npm package)","details":"### Impact\n\nThe `upload` method has a command injection vulnerability. Clients of the `codecov-node` library are unlikely to be aware of this, so they might unwittingly write code that contains a vulnerability.\n\nA similar CVE was issued: [CVE-2020-7597](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-5q88-cjfq-g2mh), but the fix was incomplete. It only blocked `&`, and command injection is still possible using backticks instead to bypass the sanitizer.\n\nWe have written a [CodeQL](https://codeql.com) query, which automatically detects this vulnerability. You can see the results of the query on the `codecov-node` project [here](https://lgtm.com/query/7714424068617023832/).\n\n\n### Patches\nThis has been patched in version 3.7.1\n\n### Workarounds\n\nNone, however, the attack surface is low in this case. Particularly in the standard use of codecov, where the module is used directly in a build pipeline, not built against as a library in another application that may supply malicious input and perform command injection. \n\n### References\n*  [CVE-2020-7597](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-5q88-cjfq-g2mh)\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n* Contact us via our [Security Email](mailto:security@codecov.io)","aliases":["CVE-2020-15123"],"modified":"2026-02-04T02:59:45.581957Z","published":"2020-07-20T17:20:20Z","related":["CVE-2020-15123"],"database_specific":{"severity":"MODERATE","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2020-07-20T17:19:56Z","nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-78"]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/codecov/codecov-node/security/advisories/GHSA-xp63-6vf5-xf3v"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-15123"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/codecov/codecov-node/pull/180"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/codecov/codecov-node/commit/c0711c656686e902af2cd92d6aecc8074de4d83d"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-5q88-cjfq-g2mh"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lgtm.com/query/7714424068617023832"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"codecov","ecosystem":"npm","purl":"pkg:npm/codecov"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"3.7.1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2020/07/GHSA-xp63-6vf5-xf3v/GHSA-xp63-6vf5-xf3v.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N"}]}
