Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5414/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5414/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-5414","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5414/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-5414","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pmv6-gf98-p3r5"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"kill-port","vendor":"kill-port_project"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"},{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"If an attacker can control the port, which in itself is a very sensitive value, they can inject arbitrary OS commands due to the usage of the exec function in a third-party module kill-port \u003c 1.3.2.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2025-12-21","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2025-12-21T16:25:56Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/crstaicu/CVE-2019-5414","stars":0,"title":"Fake repo"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Command Injection in kill-port","id":"CVE-2019-5414","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2019"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Path Traversal in serve","id":"CVE-2019-5415"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["1.3.2"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"kill-port","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-pmv6-gf98-p3r5"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["1.3.2"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"kill-port","purl":"pkg:npm/kill-port","source":"GHSA-pmv6-gf98-p3r5"}],"prev":{"headline":"Code Injection in morgan","id":"CVE-2019-5413"},"products":["kill-port"],"published":"2019-03-17","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5414/"}
