gstack-learnings-search interpolates --query, --type, and --limit
directly into a bun -e JavaScript string. A crafted query value can
break out of the string literal and execute arbitrary code:
gstack-learnings-search --query "'; require('child_process').execSync('...'); //"
Pass values via environment variables (process.env) instead of shell
string interpolation. Tested: normal queries work, injection payload
no longer executes.

CI note: the eval failures require ANTHROPIC_API_KEY which is not available on fork PRs. Free tests (bun test) pass locally. The pre-existing test-2 failure also reproduces on main. |

Replace shell string interpolation with process.env in gstack-learnings-search to prevent arbitrary code execution via crafted learnings entries. Also fixes the CROSS_PROJECT interpolation that the original PR missed. Adds 3 regression tests verifying no shell interpolation remains in the bun -e block.

* fix(bin): pass search params via env vars (RCE fix) (#819) Replace shell string interpolation with process.env in gstack-learnings-search to prevent arbitrary code execution via crafted learnings entries. Also fixes the CROSS_PROJECT interpolation that the original PR missed. Adds 3 regression tests verifying no shell interpolation remains in the bun -e block. Co-authored-by: garagon <garagon@users.noreply.github.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(browse): add path validation to upload command (#821) Add isPathWithin() and path traversal checks to the upload command, blocking file exfiltration via crafted upload paths. Uses existing SAFE_DIRECTORIES constant instead of a local copy. Adds 3 regression tests.

Resolves SAFE_DIRECTORIES through realpathSync to handle macOS /tmp -> /private/tmp symlinks. Existing path validation tests pass with the hardened implementation.

Adds two uninstall paths: the gstack-uninstall script (handles everything) and manual removal steps for when the repo isn't cloned. Includes CLAUDE.md cleanup note and Playwright cache guidance.

Three fixes: 1. Windows launcher now merges extraEnv into spawned server env (was only passing BROWSE_STATE_FILE, dropping all other env vars) 2. Welcome page fallback serves inline HTML instead of about:blank redirect (avoids ERR_UNSAFE_REDIRECT on Windows) 3. /health returns auth token in headed mode even without Origin header (fixes Playwright Chromium extensions that don't send it) Also adds HOME/USERPROFILE fallback for cross-platform compatibility.

Passes BROWSE_PARENT_PID to the spawned server process. The server polls every 15s with signal 0 and calls shutdown() if the parent is gone.

--query and --type values are interpolated directly into a bun -e JavaScript string (line 49-52 of gstack-learnings-search). A crafted query breaks out of the string literal and executes arbitrary code.
Tested before fix:
gstack-learnings-search --query "'; require('child_process').execSync('echo RCE > /tmp/poc'); //"
Result: /tmp/poc created with content "RCE"
Tested after fix: same payload, /tmp/poc not created. Normal queries return results correctly.
Change: replaced shell string interpolation with environment variables (process.env).
