Description

CVE-2026-63496 is an OS command injection vulnerability in the augment-vir library's grep() function prior to version 31.73.5. The function unsafely inserts user-controlled search patterns into a shell command string without sanitization, allowing bash to evaluate embedded command substitutions. This leads to arbitrary OS command execution as the Node.js process user. The issue is patched in version 31.73.5.
