react-dev-utils OS Command Injection in function `getProcessForPort`

Quick fix

GHSA-5q6m-3h65-w53x — react-dev-utils: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

npm install react-dev-utils@11.0.4

Details

react-dev-utils prior to v11.0.4 exposes a function, `getProcessForPort`, where an input argument is concatenated into a command string to be executed. This function is typically used from react-scripts (in Create React App projects), where the usage is safe. Only when this function is manually invoked with user-provided values (ie: by custom code) is there the potential for command injection. If you're consuming it from react-scripts then this issue does not affect you.
