CVE-2021-23380

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions roar-pidusage (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands if attacker-controlled user input is given to the stat function of the package on certain operating systems. This is due to the use of the child process exec function without input sanitization.

Recommendations As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the stat function of the roar-pidusage package until a patch is available. Restrict access to the child process exec function to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
