transcribe2texts through 1.0.6 OS Command Injection via transcribeAudio audioPath

Summary

transcribe2texts through 1.0.6 contains an OS command injection vulnerability that allows attackers to execute commands by supplying crafted audioPath values to transcribeAudio(). Attackers can inject $() or backtick substitution or a closing quote into the unescaped path passed to child_process.exec() to run commands with Node.js process privileges.

Evidence

The exploit was run against the published artifact from the registry, not the repository. It created a marker file; a benign input through the same sink in the same session did not.

Remediation

No fixed release was published at disclosure. Don't pass untrusted file names or strings to the affected functions, or apply the patch from the fix pull request.
