{"apiVersion":"1.0","identifier":"CVE-2026-73414","description":"Shescape is a simple shell escape library for JavaScript. Prior to 2.1.14 and 3.0.1, getEscapeFunction in src/internal/win/cmd.js does not escape `(` and `)` when applications use the escape or escapeAll APIs on Windows with shell set to cmd.exe, or with shell set to true when CMD is the default. An attacker-controlled argument can break out of a parenthesized CMD construct and inject shell syntax depending on the original command, resulting in arbitrary command execution. This issue is fixed in versions 2.1.14 and 3.0.1.","publishedAt":"2026-08-12T20:17:56","lastModifiedAt":"2026-08-14T22:17:11","sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-73414","cvssScore":9.2,"cvssVector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X","epssProbability":0.00524,"riskScore":0.96,"affectedProduct":"shescape","affectedVersions":"<2.1.14,<3.0.1","vulnerabilityType":"Library","operatingSystems":[],"links":{"self":"https://www.redsauce.net/api/cves/CVE-2026-73414","webPages":{"es":"https://www.redsauce.net/es/cves/CVE-2026-73414","en":"https://www.redsauce.net/en/cves/CVE-2026-73414","fr":"https://www.redsauce.net/fr/cves/CVE-2026-73414","pt":"https://www.redsauce.net/pt/cves/CVE-2026-73414","de":"https://www.redsauce.net/de/cves/CVE-2026-73414","sk":"https://www.redsauce.net/sk/cves/CVE-2026-73414","el":"https://www.redsauce.net/el/cves/CVE-2026-73414"},"source":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-73414"}}
