simple-git (maintained as git-js named repository on GitHub) is a light weight interface for running git commands in any node.js application.The package simple-git before 3.5.0 are vulnerable to Command Injection due to an incomplete fix of CVE-2022-24433 which only patches against the git fetch attack vector. A similar use of the --upload-pack feature of git is also supported for git clone, which the prior fix didn't cover. A fix was released in simple-git@3.5.0.
