CVE-2025-11953
Description
A command injection flaw has been discovered in the npm @react-native-community/cli-server-api package. URLs are not properly validated which may allow an attacker to execute local code which is already present on the host.
Statement
The complexity of exploitation on Linux is significantly higher than on Windows as the attacker may only trigger executable which have been pre-installed and which are accessible to the affected program.
Mitigation
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Confidentiality,Integrity,Availability,Non-Repudiation
Technical Impact: Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands; DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart; Read Files or Directories; Modify Files or Directories; Read Application Data; Modify Application Data; Hide Activities
Attackers could execute unauthorized operating system commands, which could then be used to disable the product, or read and modify data for which the attacker does not have permissions to access directly. Since the targeted application is directly executing the commands instead of the attacker, any malicious activities may appear to come from the application or the application's owner.
